Indeed, while the sub-Saharan region has been one of the least affected by the pandemic, from a health point of view, it is no less badly affected, from an economic point of view. With a noticeable slowdown in growth.\n\n    \n  \n\n\n  \n    \n      \nThe two representatives also note that the recovery should be much slower in sub-Saharan Africa, in contrast with North Africa, rich in hydrocarbons, which should experience faster growth. In this regard, the per capita incomes of many countries are not expected to return to pre-Covid levels before 2025.\n\n    \n  \n\n\n  \n    \n      \nIn this perspective, the representative of the African Caucus told Ms. Georgieva that &#8220;substantial additional funding&#8221; will be necessary for Africa to achieve its main development goals.
