Hannah Ryder, CEO of Development Reimagined, and Yunnan Chen, a research fellow at ODI Global, dive into the evolving China-Africa relationship. They discuss the impact of FOCAC 9 on infrastructure development and the shift in global aid dynamics following USAID's withdrawal. They highlight the blend of aid and investment in FOCAC, and examine the transition towards commercial financing in Africa. The importance of enhancing strategic partnerships between African governments and Chinese investors to boost trade and job creation is also emphasized.
