The report examines the future of Africa's development governance in a post-2015 context, emphasizing the importance of global governance and financial flows. It utilizes a scenario methodology to envision three distinct futures for Sub-Saharan Africa by 2022. The scenarios include “Africa Left Behind,” where outdated governance hinders progress; “Cut-Throat Competition,” characterized by fragmented funding sources leading to inequality; and “Africa Rising,” which highlights a more flexible governance system attracting diverse investments. The report emphasizes that African solutions are essential for development, and that China's growth does not guarantee African success. Infrastructure improvements and effective governance are critical for sustainable growth. The authors argue for policy coherence beyond aid, linking development to broader governance issues. The findings aim to stimulate discussion on how stakeholders can act today to improve outcomes and mitigate risks in the evolving landscape of global development governance.
