Sugar Rush: Aligning the sugar industry with the African Continental Free Trade Agreement

17th September 2020

Watch the latest in our series of “Sugar Rush” webinars, Aligning the sugar industry with the African Continental Free Trade Agreement, where Silver Ojakol, Chief of Staff to the Secretary General of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) H.E. Wamkele Mene and Mulhim Eltayeb, interim Executive Director of the African Sugar Development Task Force (ASDTF) looked at the future of the African sugar industry within the context of the AfCFTA in a discussion moderated by José Orive, Executive Director of the International Sugar Organisation.

In this free, 45-minute webinar, we discussed what the AfCFTA means for sugar, how negotiations are coming along for implementation, and how the new trade rules could promote a renaissance of the African sugar industry, producing African sugar for Africans, rather than raw sugar for export on the global market.
