Communications crucial for successful implementation of AfCFTA
Communications must play a crucial role in building awareness on the gender implications of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) and the accord as a whole, participants to a recent Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) workshop on trade and gender agreed. Panellists and participants agreed for example, that whenever the ECA and its partners organized big events, they should also arrange dedicated sessions on gender. The ECA’s upcoming Africa Trade Forums, they agreed, offer a perfect platform for this. In each of the forums, a women’s business roundtable should be organized to ensure the push against barriers facing women in trade are taken down.
