The African Economic Congress is independent and not tied to any political, partisan or national interests. Organized by Golden Aura for Public-Private Cooperation.

One of the recommendations at African Economic Congress 2019 was to have an interventionist bank in Africa for women, we are glad that the African Development Bank has launched its Affirmative Finance Action for women in Africa #AFAWA this is a right step in the right direction
