S FEATURE TOPIC: BACKGROUND

Key areas of concerns

• Economic stagnation / decline prior to growth recovery- Continued population growth- Sharp increase in poverty rates in the past

• Recovery not long / strong enough to make up for lost ground

• MDG1 not achieved by many countries despite good progress

• Can recovery be sustained or even accelerated?

• How to avoid trap of growth with low employment creation and slow income generation?

S FEATURE TOPIC: KEY FINDINGS

Current Economic Recovery and its drivers

• Length and geographic spread of current growth recovery is unprecedented

• But it will take many more decades to make up for the loss from 3 decades of stagnation and decline pre-recovery

• Key drivers of current and future growth

- Quality macro and sector policies- Quality of governance- Increase in savings, investments, FDI, ODA

• They made it possible for economies to respond to rising commodity prices

FEATURE TOPIC: KEY FINDINGS

Growth and structural change performance Structural change reduced overall labor productivity prior

to recoveryo It moved labor out of stagnating agriculture into fast

growing, lower productivity informal goods and services (IGS) sector

IGS is now by far the largest sector in African economies, with consequences for future growth strategies

During recovery, structural change has started to raise labor productivityo Higher productivity in IGS and manufacturing is pulling

labor out of growing agriculture

S FEATURE TOPIC: KEY FINDINGS

Transformation agricultural value chains

• Diets across Africa are changing due to rapid urbanization and rising middle class

• Resulting in rapid changes in downstream segments of food staples value chains, with implications for:- Agribusiness enterprise creation and growth- Employment creation for women and youth - Income generation for local farmers- Food safety, health, and nutrition

FEATURE TOPIC: KEY FINDINGS

The challenges of industrialization

• Africa has lacked strong and consistent industrialization policies

• Manufacturing growth has been weak and contributed little to recent growth recovery

• Renewed industrial development strategies are critical to deepening and sustaining growth, which calls for:

- Continued improvement in economic governance

- Increased investment in infrastructure and S&T

- Adequate institutional infrastructure for expanded management and technical training
