Africa continues to be the victim of many injustices.
The pandemic and then the spillover of the Ukraine war aggravated not only the economic situation but rather the social, cultural and religious dimensions as well. Radical and terrorist groups have maliciously used these fissures to recruit and mobilize young Africans.
The complexity and magnitude of these threats cannot be defeated by any single government or organization. Effective action requires a concerted multilateral and multifaceted response that is global, regional and national, with a focus on impact at the local level. The development of multi-stakeholder and multisectoral strategies is key.
