"Africa, our neighbour" at Ji.hlava film festival

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic supported online panel discussion "Africa, our neighbour", which took place today under the auspices of Inspiration Forum and Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival as part of the block „Cool Africa / Transformations of Europe’s Neighbour.” The Czech MFA was represented in the panel by the Director for Sub-Saharan Africa at, Ms. Nicol Adamcová.

Inspiration Forum, the organizer of the panel, introduces the discussion as follows: Africa, the world’s fastest growing continent is facing climate change, security conflicts, unemployment, massive internal migration and growing dissatisfaction of the young population that calls for better government and more justice and social emancipation. The continent is also becoming one of the priorities of the Czech and European foreign policies. The stronger Africa is, the stronger we are too. Why should we care about maintaining an equal partnership with our African neighbour and what are our shared perspectives and opportunities for us to use?
