Social And Solidarity Economy: African Youth Prepare Initiatives On Continental Scale

December 27, 2025 Intercontinental Network for the Promotion of Social and Solidarity Economy. Create! Africa, Economic Democracy, Solidarity Economy, Youth Activism

This initiative is part of the international project ‘Regionalisation of the UN resolution on the promotion of the Social and Solidarity Economy’, which aims to adapt and operationalise international commitments to the SSE in African contexts. In a continent where young people represent a major demographic force, but also a socio-economic challenge, the social and solidarity economy (SSE) appears to be a structuring response. Based on solidarity, democratic governance, territorial anchoring and inclusion, it is a recognised lever for decent job creation, social innovation and economic resilience.

The Alliance of Sahel States (AES) has taken a decisive step toward regional self defense after officially launching a joint military force aimed at combating Islamist insurgency and terrorism across the Sahel.

The ceremony was presided over by Mali’s Transitional President, Head of State, Supreme Chief of the Armed Forces, and outgoing President of the AES, Army General Assimi Goïta. The event was the formal handover of the Unified Force of the AES banner, marking the operationalization of a long-declared commitment by Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger to jointly secure their territories’ sovereignty.

December 16, 2025 Alan MacLeod, MintPress News. Educate! Africa, Blood minerals, Diamonds, Genocide, Israel

Did your engagement ring help fund a genocide in Gaza? Quite possibly. Despite possessing no mines of their own, Israel is a major player in the world’s diamond business, buying up minerals across Africa and selling them to the West, netting billions in the process. Diamonds are Israel’s most important export, and directly bankroll the country’s ongoing genocide against the people of Gaza. MintPress explores the dark world of Israeli blood diamonds. Any visitor walking through Tel Aviv’s exclusive Ramat Gan district will be struck by its wealth. Skyscrapers are everywhere, and expensive jewelry stores lines the streets.

On December 1, 2025, African leaders, diplomats, and scholars gathered in Algiers, Algeria for a conference on the crimes of colonialism in Africa. Dubbed, The International Conference on Colonial Crimes in Africa: Towards Correcting Historical Injustices by Criminalizing Colonialism, the event occurred under the leadership of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and culminated in the drafting and adoption of the Algiers Declaration. The statement consolidates decades of reparations and anti-colonial advocacy into a coherent continental position.

Strategic Convergences Between Africa, Asia And Latin America

The current shift in the world order reveals a deep tension. While the West, weakened by its internal crises and geopolitical contradictions, is trying to preserve its declining leadership, Africa, Asia and Latin America are quietly rebuilding the lines of force of the Global South. Driven by shared memories of domination and renewed aspirations for sovereignty, these regions are now forging strategic convergences that are giving new meaning to tricontinental solidarity. In this context, their struggles against neocolonialism and neo-imperialism are taking on decisive importance in redefining the balance of power in the 21st century and opening up new prospects for their common future.

Sudan’s War, UAE Gold, And The Rise Of Anti-Imperialist Alliances

Even as the U.S. empire’s gaze is turned towards Venezuela, it continues to meddle in Africa. Foreign intervention is fueling a bitter civil war in Sudan, the Trump administration is pushing a line about a genocide against Christians in Nigeria, with an eye on military intervention, and across the Sahel region, anti-imperialist forces continue to rise and organize, dreaming of a united, pan-African continent that will resist American imperialism and reject Israeli colonization. Joining MintCast host Mnar Adley today to talk about the continent is Ahmed Kaballo. Ahmed is a British-Sudanese journalist and the CEO and co-founder of African Stream, a media outlet shut down by the U.S. government for publishing inconvenient truths.

November 24, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Community of Caribbean States (CARICOM), Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), Ghana, Pan Africanism, Reparations

Asserting the “inalienable right of Africans and people of African descent to full reparations” for “slavery, colonialism, apartheid, and systemic exploitation”, an international Pan-African conference on November 18 and 19 adopted the Accra Declaration on Reparatory Justice. Mandating the establishment of a “Pan-African Reparatory Justice Coordinating Committee” and laying out the next steps to be taken, the Accra declaration signalled “a new era of coordinated global action on reparatory justice,” said the Pan-African Progressive Front (PPF). A global platform undertaking research, advocacy, and grassroots mobilization to strengthen the Pan-African movement, the PPF organized this event to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the historic 5th Pan-African Congress in October 1945 in Manchester, England.

Africa’s Recent Elections: Crisis And A Continent’s Youth In Revolt

November 14, 2025 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Democracy, Dictatorship, Elections, Neocolonialism, Neoliberalism, Political repression, Tanzania, US Imperialism

The past few months have seen three elections across Africa, in Tanzania, Cameroon, and Côte d’Ivoire. Each exposed a deepening democratic crisis on the continent. While the ballot boxes were filled and the slogans of “stability” and “unity” were loudly proclaimed, the underlying reality was very different; repression, exclusion, and a profound disconnect between the political class and the masses, especially youth. In all three cases, aging leaders clung to power through electoral processes that were anything but democratic.

Progressive Popular Movements And Organizations In Solidarity With People Of Sudan

Across Africa and the world, progressive and popular organizations are raising their voices in solidarity with the people of Sudan, as they face one of the most brutal and protracted conflicts in the world today. From Ghana to South Africa, from international networks to grassroots movements, the message is unified in a call to end the massacres, open humanitarian corridors, and uphold the Sudanese people’s struggle for justice, peace, and sovereignty. Amid mounting international condemnation for its war crimes, especially over the last several weeks, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have reportedly agreed to a three-month pause in the fighting.

The Need For Revolutionary Pan-Africanism

October 2025 marks eighty years since the historic Fifth Pan-African Congress convened in Manchester, United Kingdom, in 1945. This congress became a revolutionary turning point in the global struggle against colonialism and imperialism. It brought together a remarkable group of African and Caribbean thinkers, workers, trade unionists, and political leaders, including Ghanaian leader Kwame Nkrumah, Caribbean-born US-based communist leader George Padmore, Trinidadian historian CLR James, Kenyan freedom fighter Jomo Kenyatta, Jamaican Pan-Africanist Amy Ashwood Garvey, and ITA Wallace-Johnson, who collectively articulated a new vision of African liberation and self-determination.

Repoliticizing A Generation

October 22, 2025 Amber Murrey, Africa Is A Country. Strategize! Africa, Anti-Imperialism, Pan Africanism, Thomas Sankara

Yesterday marked the 38th anniversary of the assassination of Thomas Sankara, who, on October 15, 1987, was killed alongside twelve of his comrades during a coup led by Blaise Compaoré. Sankara’s brief but transformative presidency (1983–1987) reoriented Burkina Faso’s political economy toward self-reliance, gender equality, ecological stewardship, and non-alignment in global affairs. For more than three decades, Aziz Salmone Fall, a pan-African activist, political scientist, and coordinator of the International Campaign Justice for Sankara (ICJS), has worked with Sankara’s family, Burkinabè activists, and international allies to demand truth and accountability.

In Honor Of Comrade Abiodun Aremu

October 16, 2025 Black Alliance For Peace Africa Team, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Abiodun Aremu, Activists, Africa, African Liberation Movement, Marxism, Obituary

The Black Alliance for Peace Africa Team and U.S. Out of Africa Network join the masses in Nigeria and across the African continent in mourning the tragic loss of our comrade and U.S. Out of Africa Network Steering Committee member, Abiodun Aremu. Comrade Aremu was a Pan-Africanist and an internationalist in the truest sense. His profound understanding of the struggle extended beyond the borders of Nigeria, rooted in a deep commitment to the liberation of the entire African working class from the grip of imperialism. As a teacher and a steadfast general, his life was dedicated to the ideological and political work necessary for our collective emancipation, exemplified by his founding of the Amilcar Cabral Institute of Ideological Studies.

World Bank Acknowledges Poverty Increase In Nigeria

October 14, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. Educate! Africa, Austerity, Bola Tinubu, Neoliberalism, Nigeria, Poverty, World Bank (WB)

The World Bank projects that 139 million Nigerians will be living in poverty by the end of this year, a nearly 60% increase from 87 million in 2023, when President Bola Tinubu started implementing the reforms it had prescribed on the first day of his term. Promising to slash petrol prices during his election campaign, Tinubu declared in his presidential inaugural speech on May 29, 2023, “the fuel subsidy is gone,” overseeing a petrol price hike of nearly 488% in Africa’s largest producer by October 2024. This also increased the price of electricity multifold because more than 58% of the Nigerian households, left out of the national grid, rely on petrol and diesel generators. With storage capacity and cold-chain logistics limited, a lack of “reliable access to power also leads to high food losses.

Africa Will Be Free When The IMF Stops Colluding To Steal Its Wealth

October 10, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Educate! Africa, Imperialism, International Monetary Fund (IMF), Senegal

In February 2025, Senegal’s Court of Auditors released a report that found ‘anomalies’ in the management of public finances between 2019 and 2024, during the presidency of Macky Sall (2012–2024). For instance, the court found that while Sall’s government had suggested that the budget deficit for 2023 was 4.9% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), it was in fact 12.3%. The court went to work on this reconstruction of public finances because of a very significant accusation made by Senegal’s new prime minister, Ousmane Sonko, at a press conference in Dakar in September 2024. What the auditors found, and what the International Monetary Fund (IMF) validated, was that the actual debt ratio in 2023 was 99.7% of GDP – not 74.7% – and that the deficit had been underestimated by 5.6% of GDP (in August 2025, the debt ratio was revised to 111% of GDP).

Until Dignity Becomes Customary: The Determination Of Francia Márquez Mina

October 2, 2025 Charo Mina Rojas, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Africa, Afro-descendants, Colombia, Foreign Relations

Colombia is the third country after Brazil and the United States with the largest Afro-descendant population in the Americas. With more than ten million people of African origins, cultures and practices rooted in Yoruba and Bantu philosophies, traditional languages such as the Palenquero, rhythms and even forms of self-identification that express roots with the continent, in Colombia it is still asked: why Africa? In 2022, the government of President Gustavo Petro, a government for change, structured in the National Development Plan and foreign policy, the “Africa Strategy 2022-2026,” responded to Vice President Francia Márquez Mina’s initiative to pay more attention to the African continent and to develop concrete, meaningful relations with its countries.
