“Growing poverty and inequality are Africa’s most pressing challenges. In 2022, Africa has more than half of the world’s poor which is more than 50% of the total population.
Alarmingly more than half of Africa’s population, 546 million people were living in poverty last year alone. This is a 75% increase since 1990.”
H.E. Dr. Nemera Gebeyehu, State Minister for Planning and Development, Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia
