How important is infrastructure development for Africa? @NEPAD_Agency’s @amibiaka says “it’s critical”. In his interview with @SABCNews he explains how AUDA-NEPAD works on infrastructure project preparation for improved bankability. youtube.com/watch?v=RDABA7…

Infrastructure development serves as the foundation of regional integration. Our team took part in and spoke at this year’s @InfrastructureA where they highlighted this message and the work that @GIZAfricanUnion does to support the implementation of #PIDA projects.
