AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Youth Employment: West African governments adopted the Freetown Declaration, calling for job-focused vocational training, digital skills, better access to finance and investment in sectors such as agriculture and mining. Investment & Jobs: Namibia launched Dangote’s $2.5 billion fuel storage and pipeline project, with the president saying Namibians should get priority for new jobs, followed by other Africans. Trade at Risk: South Africa’s loss of US AGOA trade benefits from 2027 could threaten export-linked employment; Western Cape exporters warn up to 47,000 jobs are exposed, while the auto industry also flags potential losses. Skills: Google’s new free digital and AI training platform aims to reach three million Africans, as regional ICT leaders warn that the AI skills gap is about work experience, not just qualifications.
