The African continent has a unique opportunity to respond to coronavirus.
Across the world, as countries and economies slowly reopen, Africa lags behind. We were last to experience the coronavirus—and we expect to be the final continent to flatten the curve.
What we need now is for the vision of others to match our own. And Africa is positioned to play a critical role in the remolding of a post-coronavirus world that centers around manufacturing. It is simply untrue that jobs that build the goods of today, once departed from the West to Asia, can never return. Indeed, we see already from"onshoring" trends that this is not the case. Factors of labor cost, transportation, location and availability of natural and energy resources will always come into play.
