Africa must give care to innovative investment to create jobs for unemployed educated youth: Zambia official

CAIRO - 13 June 2021: Director General of Zambia Development Agency (ZDA) Mukula Makasa pointed out Sunday in IPAs Africa Forum 1 that African countries must give special care to innovative investment because there are many educated youths who are unemployed. 

 

Zambia’s priorities now are greening the economy, founding joint ventures that process raw material extracted from the country, establishing smart partnerships in terms of infrastructure, and mobilizing capital within Africa, as indicated by the Zambian official. 

 

“Hindrances to intra-African economic cooperation are not embodied in infrastructure. They’re the barriers we set between each other while opening the door for the Asians, Europeans, and Americans,” Makasa stressed.
