With less than 10 years left to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), poverty eradication still remains a daunting challenge. In Africa, four out of ten people are living in extreme poverty. Food security and healthcare remain unattainable for many Africans. The COVID-19 pandemic and the increasingly complex dynamics of international relations are moving the continent further from reaching its vision of prosperity.
The UN's Agenda 2063 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development both point to collaboration as important to Africa's development. How can collaborations between African countries, as well as between the continent and the rest of the world be encouraged? What transformations are needed? What are the priorities in the process?
China Media Group hosted a forum titled 'Africa Rising' this week to try to find some answers. The event was co-hosted by CGTN Think Tank, the Carter Center, the Schiller Institute, the Bridge Tank, ChinaEU, the South African Institute of International Affairs, the Dialogue of Civilizations Research Institute and the Russian-Chinese Analytical Center.
Elizabeth Sidiropoulos, chief executive of the South African Institute of International Affairs, said development can only come about after enough attention is paid to how the local economies are shaped. At present, Africa, according to Sidiropoulos, has no significant industrial sectors. 'If we want to see our people move beyond poverty, we need to create job opportunities for them,' she said.

For the past decades, Africa has been relying on foreign investments for job opportunities. This, however, is not a sustainable way forward, and Sidiropoulos emphasized the significance of developing domestic industries. Optimizing the economic structure is a prerequisite to decrease Africa's unemployment rate, expand the middle class, and help the continent end poverty by 2030.
