Network set to provide the human capital for Africa’s transformational economic development

Africa’s future will be shaped by the young minds of the ECA Young Economists Network (ECA-YEN) who will be nurtured to take charge of the economic direction in which the continent goes. This was the conclusion drawn by the eminent panelists who were at the virtual launch of the ECA-YEN on 7 December 2021. The High-Level Webinar was attended by more than 200 young students across the continent, many of whom are members of the network.
The High-Level webinar reflected on the implication of stability-oriented macroeconomic policies and practices for building resilient economies to shocks at national and sub-regional levels.
The ECA-YEN’s mechanism to support macroeconomic stability, through nowcasting and forecasting at national, sub-regional levels, was presented.
