Abstract

The African continent is at a crossroads caused by economic recession, crime, corruption and incompetence of leaders leading to insecurity and poverty. This is the best time to join forces in finding solutions to the challenges facing sustainable development in Africa. This study seeks to assess difficulties in implementing policies and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with specific reference to Africa. This article is supported by a thorough literature review to ensure that the purpose of the review was clear. A typical literature review method includes several steps including searching, collecting, prioritizing and reading with the aim of identifying important issues and themes which are then presented and critically examined. Africa must fight procedural deviations to properly align the desired objectives. Benua Afrika berada di persimpangan jalan yang disebabkan oleh resesi ekonomi, kejahatan, korupsi dan ketidakmampuan para pemimpin yang menyebabkan ketidakamanan dan kemiskinan. Ini adalah waktu terbaik untuk bergabung dalam mencari solusi atas tantangan yang dihadapi pembangunan berkelanjutan di Afrika. Studi ini berupaya menilai kesulitan dalam mengimplementasikan kebijakan dan Tujuan Pembangunan Berkelanjutan (SDGs) dengan referensi khusus ke Afrika. Artikel ini didukung oleh tinjauan literatur menyeluruh untuk memastikan bahwa tujuan dari tinjauan itu jelas. Metode tinjauan pustaka yang khas mencakup beberapa langkah termasuk mencari, mengumpulkan, memprioritaskan, dan membaca dengan tujuan mengidentifikasi masalah dan tema penting yang kemudian disajikan dan diperiksa secara kritis. Afrika harus melawan penyimpangan prosedural untuk menyelaraskan tujuan yang diinginkan dengan benar.

Abstract

This research investigates the role of youth in shaping political dynamics in Guinea-Bissau, focusing on political patronage and youth engagement. Despite facing significant socio-economic challenges, such as high unemployment and limited access to quality education, young people in Guinea-Bissau actively engage in non-violent activities like sporting events, cultural days in schools, and community clean-ups, often supported by political parties. These activities reflect a shift towards constructive political participation, contrasting with the more violent demonstrations seen in neighboring countries. The study employs qualitative methods, including semi-structured interviews and content analysis, to gather and analyze data from Bissau-Guinean youth engaged in politics. The theoretical framework combines political patronage theory, youth political involvement, and democratic engagement to analyze how youth influence political dynamics. Findings reveal that patronage systems play a significant role in mediating youth political involvement, often reinforcing existing power structures and limiting genuine political participation. To enhance youth political involvement, the research underscores the need for investment in education, raising political awareness, and ensuring transparency to reduce corruption and promote informed debates. Drawing on qualitative data from interviews and thematic analysis, the study provides a nuanced understanding of the unique historical, socio-economic, and cultural contexts influencing youth political engagement in Guinea-Bissau. The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and scholars, emphasizing the importance of inclusive and effective political processes to foster democratic governance and political stability in the region. This research aims to fill the gap in existing literature by providing a focused analysis of youth political engagement in Guinea-Bissau, contributing to the broader discourse on youth political participation in West Africa.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to study policy decisions adopted by countries in the West African region (ECOWAS) to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on food supply. This article was carried out using an exploratory research method using qualitative data from bibliographic and documentary sources. Information was extracted from the Food and Agriculture Policy Decision Analysis(FAPDA), which describes policy decisions taken to mitigate effects on food security. After studying these data in relation to the Global Food Security Index (GFSI) indicators, it was found that political deliberations were focused on food access and availability. In terms of access to food, policies for transforming food into cash and policies for social protection measures standout. In terms of food availability, macroeconomic policies and policies to support food production stand out. The implications of COVID-19 increase the risk of food insecurity, especially in subSaharan African regions.
