Africa's working-age population is set to surge by over 624 million by 2050 — but are the continent's economies growing fast enough to keep up? In this episode of Afronomics, Andrew Dabalen sits down with Ndiamé Diop, World Bank Regional Vice President for Eastern and Southern Africa, to explore what it will take to unlock Africa's growth potential. From agricultural transformation and industrial policy to lessons from East Asia, Diop makes the case for a bold, three-pillar strategy to create jobs at scale for Africa's next generation.
