The North African Bureau of the African Development Bank will launch the 2020 edition of the North Africa Economic Outlook Report virtually on Tuesday, 14 July 2020 at 15:00 (Tunis).
This third edition of the report is one of the Bank’s flagship publications and provides an overview of North African economies, based on a regional approach to development. The theme for the 2020 launch is “Developing the workforce and skills for the future”.
The Report will be presented by Emmanuel Pinto Moreira, Director, Country Economics Department, and Audrey Verdier-Chouchane, the Regional Economist for North Africa.
The event will provide an opportunity to explore the key findings of the Report, set out the Bank’s macroeconomic forecasts in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, and outline the plan of skills development in North Africa.
Among the panellists will be ministers from the region who will discuss how to prepare the future generation to pursue job opportunities offered by the fourth industrial revolution. Country representatives, the private sector, national and regional institutions, and the media are invited to the launch.
