Conclusions and way forward from the ITUC-Africa conference

We note that the current global crisis, which began in the United States of America and other industrial countries, is rooted in the exploitative relations and the neo-liberal contradictions of the capitalist model, which have been imposed on our countries over the past three decades.

This crisis has aggravated various food, energy, climate and governance crises which were already plaguing Africa and causing as a result increasing precariousness and poverty.
