In this article, we analyse the executive orders, their immediate impact on development in African countries and their implications including offering suggestions on how policy makers across the continent may respond to them. Read here setafrica.africa/president-trum…

While the executive orders have been greeted with mixed reactions in and outside the US, emphasis has been placed on the potential boomerang effect on US soft power globally with little policy direction for other countries as they scuffle to respond to the executive orders.

SET Africa supports both governments and businesses in designing, implementing, and adapting policies for sustainable economic transformation. This in turn promotes the entire well-being of the continent and its citizens.

Imagine an Africa where economic growth is inclusive, sustainable and transformative! #SETAfrica #policysupport #economicgrowth #sustainabledevelopment
