By 2050, Africa will be home to 1 in 4 people. They'll be both the producers and consumers that drive global markets. 1.5bn will be of working age (more than double the whole population of Europe). What leaders in Europe and Africa do today will shape the world they command. ONE's David McNair launched a new essay series with Carnegie Endowment for International Peace that explains. #WhyEuropeNeedsAfrica Read more: https://lnkd.in/eXQZYraU

The partnership between Europe and Africa is crucial to fostering a vibrant, strong future for both continents. ONE's David McNair launched a new essay series with Carnegie Endowment for International Peace that explores just that. "While geography, history, and politics will play a critical role in the future of this relationship, the starting point lies in the greatest resource of the two continents: their people." #WhyEuropeNeedsAfrica Read more below. https://lnkd.in/eXQZYraU

98.9% of Africa’s vaccine supply is produced outside of Africa. But after COVID, African leaders set a target to produce 60% of Africa’s vaccines in Africa by 2040. That's a crucial goal not only for vaccine sovereignty but also to meet demand, as our CEO Ndidi Okonkwo Nwuneli explains below. 👇 Learn more. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/egks5nqj

We want to say a huge thank you to Dr. Jean Kaseya, director general for the Africa CDC, for mentioning ONE Campaign's research on G7 aid levels during last week's Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance investment launch and the African Vaccine Manufacturing Accelerator. The G7's share of aid to Africa is at its lowest point in 50 years. It's time for G7 leaders to get out of the past and start prioritizing partnerships with Africa and financing our future.

ONE's EU Director Emily Wigens recently sat down with Euractiv Italia to share why this month's G7 Summit was a missed opportunity for G7 leaders to commit to African partners. "It was all talk and no action...The increased promise of partnership between the G7 and the African continent included over 60 references to Africa in the communique after the summit; and despite all of that, there were very few specifics on what new financing, if any, was going to be made available to underpin these commitments." Watch her full interview below. https://lnkd.in/eYdgGM8R

"We are the architects of our destiny... and the guardians of generations yet to come." We're thrilled to share that IyinOluwa Joshua Ajayi won our 2024 Sam Singh Memorial Award. Ajayi's writing moved us - with the data of an expert and the heart of an activist, he made a compelling call for his fellow Nigerians to take action for a sustainable future. Each year, we recognize an outstanding young leader in development policy with our Sam Singh Memorial Award. It's dedicated to Sam, our former policy colleague, who passed away in 2020. Her legacy is one of kindness, and the belief in a better, more equal future. https://lnkd.in/eXP-a_W8
