For this penultimate issue of 2024, we offer you an original and stimulating exchange between 5 young African journalists specializing in economic issues. Based in Dakar, Conakry, Abidjan, Cotonou and Kinshasa, they comment on current events in their country, on the continent and elsewhere in the world.
The year was indeed very rich in economic events in Africa: the ambitious sovereignty program Bassirou Diomaye Faye and Ousmane Sonko the new tandem at the head of Senegal, the standoff between the countries of the Alliance of Sahel States (Burkina Faso, Mali, Guinea) and ECOWAS with the backdrop of a possible abandonment of the CFA franc, monitoring of Guinea's mining projects (Simandou 2040) and energy projects of the DRC (Inga dam and connection to the Lobito corridor), the development of Benin's infrastructure (and its policy in the field of creative and cultural industries).
Each in turn, they share their point of view on these themes before revealing what struck them in 2024 and their personal wish for the year 2025.
