With exogenous and endogenous shocks impacting on Africa countries to varying degrees over the years, and different regions showcasing different levels of macroeconomic resilience, the African Union (AU) must use its inclusion in the Group of 20 (G20) to help tackle pertinent issues for the continent, while South Africa must use its G20 presidency in 2025 in a similar vein. This was highlighted by speakers in the South African Institute of International Affairs' (SAIIA's) ‘Macroeconomic Resilience – exploring Africa’s G20 Agenda’ conference, held on January 29.
