Bridgewater convened Heads of State, policymakers, multilateral development banks, and other leaders across public, private, and civil sectors at the Economic Development Assembly to focus on illuminating Africa’s future. The underpinning of the Assembly was Bridgewater’s research, which highlighted the opportunities and obstacles facing Sub-Saharan Africa. We are proud to have worked with our partners Global Citizen and Harith General Partners to support The World Bank’s 21st International Development Association (IDA) replenishment as co-hosts of the Assembly in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. In April, we responded to the World Bank’s call for support of the 21st IDA replenishment. Now, five months later, CEO Nir Bar Dea, opened the Assembly with a keynote identifying the challenges and opportunities facing African economic development and how IDA replenishment can empower growth across the continent. Deputy CEO Porter D. and Co-Head of Investment Implementation Devon Long also discussed the research that Bridgewater produced, highlighting key findings including the need to increase public investment in Sub-Saharan Africa to raise millions of people out of energy poverty and further global economic growth. Prominent leaders from across the world publicly committed to supporting African economic development by signing the Abidjan Accord, a call to action for leaders of G-20 nations to increase their commitments by 20% to the 21st IDA replenishment. Thanks to the support of over 100 signatories of the Abidjan Accord, we have taken another step forward in the important effort to support the World Bank’s IDA 21st replenishment—and Africa’s economic future.
