據(jù)油價網(wǎng)12月26日消息稱，盡管隨著經(jīng)濟和全球沖擊對疫情大流行后的復(fù)蘇造成壓力，非洲經(jīng)濟體在2022年面臨不確定性，但區(qū)域內(nèi)貿(mào)易和氣候融資舉措正在幫助規(guī)劃通往更可持續(xù)發(fā)展的道路。

根據(jù)國際貨幣基金組織對撒哈拉以南非洲的區(qū)域經(jīng)濟展望，該地區(qū)經(jīng)濟增長預(yù)計將從2021年的4.7%放緩至2022年的3.6%，這與全球趨勢如出一轍。

糧食安全已成為許多非洲國家關(guān)注的核心問題，尤其是在大宗商品價格高企、地緣政治沖突以及氣候變化引發(fā)的自然災(zāi)害威脅糧食供應(yīng)的情況下。

6月至11月間西非發(fā)生的洪災(zāi)凸顯了該大陸對氣候變化影響的脆弱性，導致約140萬人流離失所，超過50萬公頃農(nóng)田被毀。

盡管存在這些不利因素，2022年仍將加強區(qū)域貿(mào)易合作，擴大地緣政治參與，制定經(jīng)濟多樣化計劃，并努力縮小融資缺口，以支持能源轉(zhuǎn)型和保護非洲大陸的大量自然資源。

Africa’s Green Energy Push Gained Momentum In 2022

Although economies in Africa faced uncertainty in 2022 as economic and global shocks weighed on post-Covid-19 pandemic recovery, intraregional trade and climate finance initiatives are helping to chart a course towards more sustainable development.

Mirroring global trends, growth across the region is expected to slow from 4.7% in 2021 to 3.6% in 2022, according to the IMF’s regional economic outlook for sub-Saharan Africa.

Food security has become a central concern for many African nations, especially as high commodity prices, the war and climate change-induced natural disasters threaten food supply.

Flooding in West Africa between June and November highlighted the continent’s vulnerability to the impact of climate change, displacing some 1.4m people and damaging more than 500,000 ha of farmland.

Despite these headwinds, 2022 saw an increase in regional cooperation on trade and wider geopolitical involvement, as well as economic diversification plans, and efforts to close the financing gap in support of the energy transition and the preservation of the continent’s substantial natural resources.
