| Summary, etc | The article tackles aid versus trade debate between Africa and the developed world. Governments of wealthy countries like to tell tales of generous aid spending and a common responsibility to help those less fortunate in the world. The story of what is given to continents such as Africa against what is taken away raises the issue of IFFs. When the losses are compared to overall financial inflows –– including not just aid but foreign investment and remittances –– Africa is left with a US$58 billion (M618 billion) a year net loss. The figures expose the true financial relationship of developed countries with Africa, a relationship . It is a relationship in which the world doesn’t aid Africa, but in which Africa aids the world. False narratives ,debates on the role of wealthy governments in ending global poverty tend to focus on how much aidis given. Complicit countries are given,Africa is not poor, though its people are being kept in poverty by a combination of inequitable policies, huge disparities in power, and criminal activities perpetuated and sustained by wealthy elites, both inside and outside the continent. |
