    EXTRACTS FROM THE REPORT Jobs, Justice and Equity Seizing opportunities in times of global change Africa Progress Report 2012 EXTRACTS FROM THE AFRICA PROGRESS REPORT 2012 ABOUT THE AFRICA PROGRESS PANEL The Africa Progress Panel (APP) consists of ten distinguished individuals from the private and public sector, who advocate on global issues of importance to Africa and the world. Mr Kofi Annan, former Secretary- General of the United Nations and Nobel laureate, chairs the APP and is closely involved in its day-to-day work. The Panel’s unique convening power allows it to focus on complex and high-impact issues such as global governance, peace and security, climate change, food security, sustainable economic development, and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). While these problems have immediate ramifications for Africa, their solutions require the coming together of a wide range of stakeholders within and outside Africa. The life experiences of Panel members give them a formidable ability to access a wide and deep cross- section of society. This means they are well placed to affect change on issues that require the engagement of multiple stakeholders. The Panel’s primary objective is to advocate for shared responsibility between African leaders and their international partners to ensure sustainable and equitable development in Africa. ABOUT THE AFRICA PROGRESS REPORT The Africa Progress Report is the Africa Progress Panel’s flagship publication. Its purpose is to provide an overview of the progress Africa has made over the previous year.

  • Linah K Mohohlo: the Financial Crisis – Impact on Africa
    Linah K Mohohlo: The financial crisis – impact on Africa Remarks by Ms Linah K Mohohlo, Governor of the Bank of Botswana and a member of the African Progess Panel (APP), on behalf of the APP Chairman at the meeting on “The financial crisis: impact on Africa”, Tunis, Tunisia, 12 November 2008. * * * I wish to begin by tendering profound apologies from the Chairman of the Africa Progress Panel, Mr Kofi Annan, who is unable to be a part of this meeting due to overlapping commitments. He is particularly disappointed by his inability to attend as today’s meeting is taking place partly as a result of conversations between him and the President of the African Development Bank (ADB), Dr Kaberuka. I have, therefore, been asked and accepted to speak on his behalf and on behalf of the other members of the Africa Progress Panel.1 For those who may not know, the Africa Progress Panel exists to monitor, encourage and support African countries and their development partners in taking specific steps to advance social, economic and political progress in Africa. In this context, this meeting is both significant and timely, and President Kaberuka deserves commendation for taking the initiative to get us together. The Africa Progress Panel welcomes, in particular, the collaborative approach being taken by the ADB, the African Union and the Economic Commission for Africa. This will underpin the meeting’s capacity to provide input for upcoming critical events, such as the G20 meeting that is tenable in Washington DC on November 15, and the Doha meeting on International Finance scheduled for the end of November.
