This type of public policy evaluation has been variously referred to as 'Africa-rooted evaluation' or 'Made in Africa evaluation' (MAE) and many other similar names. The objective of this article is to critically analyse the challenges evaluation scholars, academics and practitioners must overcome in order to establish an Africa-rooted public policy evaluation approach. The methodological approach used in this analysis is mainly qualitative and it is based on a robust review of existing topics of evaluation, Africa-rooted public policy evaluation (and similar concepts) to determine whether it is possible to establish an Africa-rooted public policy evaluation in an African context. This research finds that, the establishment of an Africa-rooted public policy evaluation approach will depend on two important transformations. First, indigenous African evaluation and non-indigenous African scholars and experts must agree on the African values, practices, and traditions on which such public policy evaluation approach should be based. Second, the indigenous African philosophy of Ubuntu has its own downsides which have serious implications for public policy evaluation in Africa. These weaknesses and their implications should be addressed before making Ubuntu the foundation of the envisaged Africa-rooted public policy evaluation approach. The challenge facing African evaluation scholars, experts and practitioners is to establish an Africa-rooted public policy evaluation approach which benefits the African indigenous people without excluding citizens of African countries who do not subscribe to the Ubuntu African philosophy.","PeriodicalId":211731,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Foreign Affairs","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121202809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basic aim of the agreement is to 'deepen economic integration of the African continent by creating a single market with free movement of people, goods and businesses'. This development is intended to replace existing agreements of regional blocs by compressing Africa into a single market. This paper interrogates this development in the context of development assistance challenges and prospects within the continent. The overarching concern is to examine the prospects of a new paradigm in development assistance, especially in the niche areas of technical assistance, transfer of resources and goods within the continent to promote development, and combat poverty and insecurity. Can this agreement further deepen and elevate existing levels of cooperation within Africa and re-position African countries on the threshold of previous articulations in line with the philosophy of cooperation and development as enunciated in the New Partnership for Africa Development (NEPAD)? The findings show that this level of relationship is possible and economically beneficial. The paper recommends a cohesive policy framework that would instigate commitment, enhance productive capacity and create a mutual beneficial platform for all African countries.","PeriodicalId":211731,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Foreign Affairs","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115811257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is in this context that the author analyses the relations between China and Ethiopia in the context of the key drivers of the Asian giant's foreign policy towards the African country. This research article was driven by the desire to analyse the key drivers of China's Ethiopia Policy because of the limited scholarly literature in existence on the subject under review. Similarly, the newly fastest developing theory of Afrocentricity (as informed by African way of knowing) has been adopted to better shape China's international relations with Ethiopia. Henceforth, it is adopted in this article to contribute to the existing limited scholarly discourse on China-Ethiopia relations from an African-centred contextual and theoretical lens. A qualitative approach was adopted in the form of document analysis and preliminary findings revealed that China's key interests in Ethiopia are centred on the latter's agricultural products and diplomatic support from the de facto political capital of Africa.","PeriodicalId":211731,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Foreign Affairs","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127481746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2018, the 6th round of Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) for The Gambia was carried out by the Gambia Bureau of Statistics with the support of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) as part of the global MICS program. The report confirmed that The Gambia still has a high poverty rate of (48.6%) out of about the total population figure of 2.09 million as at 2015, with 10.1% of the population living below the international poverty line, and inequality ratio of 35.9% (GBoS, 2019). This underscored the Barrow government’s decision in 2017 to redefine the national planning strategy that it inherited from the previous regime. This led to the re-drafting of a national agenda document for poverty reduction and national inclusion, The National Development Plan (2018-2021), that was implemented for social protection. This research focused on the actions and/or steps taken to correct the anomalies inherent in the enforcement process and those ones taken to ensure the set objectives of the program policy are realized and actualized through the EU-assisted project implementation from 2020. The research methodology was strictly qualitative, using the purposive/selective sampling method of data collection. The data collected from primary and secondary sources were descriptive and analytical in nature. The primary sources were the interview questions asked from the selected sample population, while the secondary sources were relevant literature on the social protection project in The Gambia and beyond its shores. The findings confirmed that the program was hampered by the Gambian government’s poor policy implementation framework, which the Barrow government re-structured to align the national implementation model in partnership with international donor agencies like the European Union and the World Bank. This informed the 2020-2023 project implementation by the EU through technical aid and the EU-Gambia cooperation. The paper recommended for the full implementation policy in line with the advice given by the experts and other stakeholders for program implementation realization agenda in the spirit of national considerations for unity, cohesion, development and sustainability to eradicate poverty and penury in the country.","PeriodicalId":211731,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Foreign Affairs","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114395345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Global politics is littered with several political ideologies that serve as guides for several countries. The central place of ideology in governance has led some scholars to argue that no State can exist without an ideology, whether well-articulated by its leaders or not. Therefore, ideology is the bedrock of governance. This implies that the political ideology that guides a particular political community affects the relationship between citizens and their leaders. An ideology also determines and influences the foreign policy of a nation. Given the imperativeness of ideology, this paper discusses and elaborates on the several ideologies in play in global politics. However, special focus is placed on Africa given the dire need for socioeconomic and political transformation in the continent. This paper concludes that the African quest for development can only be realized when African leaders generate the right socioeconomic and political ideology that will enhance the status of the continent in international politics and transform Africans.","PeriodicalId":211731,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Foreign Affairs","volume":"380 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117085690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
