🚨BREAKING: U.S. State Department Announces Historic $100 Million Commitment to Operation End Starvation, Launching a New Era in the Fight to End Child Deaths from Malnutrition

Though it’s the first U.S.-Africa summit of this Trump administration, it’s unlikely to be the last. Nonres @RDay17 has some thoughts on how the U.S. and Africa can frame high-level diplomacy to create win-win scenarios:

New pub alert! In a new piece, @RDay17 explores how a rebranded U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit could launch a new era of U.S.-Africa relations and make clear strategic priorities around trade, tariffs, and tech.

Kudos to the Trump Administration's @StateDept for announcing plans to host a U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit. Here's why it's important and how they can make it a success @CarnegieEndow @AsstSecStateAF @AfricaCarnegie https://t.co/RFomTfQVCd

[Tibor Nagy @TiborPNagyJr]

While in my official position I can only endorse official U.S policies, my friend Josh Meservey’s op-ed in Foreign Policy on what America’s Africa Policy towards Africa should prioritize is well worth reading. https://t.co/nFpenr91i7

[Carnegie Endowment @CarnegieEndow]

@CChivvis will then lead a conversation between @RDay17 & @jane_munga on how the administration can revitalize its diplomatic toolkit to better cooperate with African states.

‼️Join the Africa program tomorrow, December 4, 2024, at 9:30 am EST (5:30 pm EAT) for our in-person launch of AfTech, the first-ever continent-wide aggregate of digital economy laws, policies, and regulations – developed in partnership with @ATU_UAT.

Thanks for the invitation and engaging discussion. @AfricaCarnegie @TiborPNagyJr @MssZeeUsman

One prominent takeaway was the prediction of a second Trump administration being more pragmatic and transactional. @RDay17, former assistant administrator @USAIDAfrica, predicts alignment with USAID funding and national security priorities to ensure that "every dollar has a job.”

[Dr. J. Peter Pham 🇺🇲 @DrJPPham]

A piece by @AfricaCarnegie’s Ramsey Day, former @USAIDAfrica Assistant Administrator, argues that #USA🇺🇸 diplomatic & development efforts in #Africa should smartly prioritize #AI & other emerging technologies, helping shape the region’s digital landscape.

🌍 Why should the U.S. invest in AI for Africa?

By fostering digital innovation, U.S. development agencies can help move the U.S.-Africa relationship toward a model of shared values & mutually beneficial economic cooperation, argues @RDay17 ⬇️

The US-Africa relationship needs to evolve. My latest take on how and why US development agencies should embrace AI to modernize the relationship. @AfricaCarnegie @USAID @USAIDAfrica @ProsperAfricaUS @DFCgov @MCCgov @AsstSecStateAF @_AfricanUnion

Excited about my affiliation with @AfricaCarnegie as their newest nonresident scholar. I'm looking forward to joining esteemed thought leaders to analyze and monitor U.S. economic engagement with national and subnational actors in Africa. @MssZeeUsman

[Kate Almquist Knopf @almquistkate]

The unjustified release of the only remaining incarcerated murderer of two beloved @USAID colleagues in Sudan, John Granville and Abdel Rahman Abbas, is an egregious travesty of justice and an intentional abrogation of the rule of law.

Today Secretary Blinken is in the Democratic Republic of Congo

Read our 2019 investigation into how a small group of US officials stamped out US criticisms&questions over the legitimacy of the vote tally & embraced what data shows were rigged elections
