Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, February 26, 2021 (ECA) – “We owe it to our young girls to develop better systems that foster gender equality in Africa,” said Thokozile Ruzvidzo, Director of Gender, Poverty and Social Policy at the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), on Friday 26 February 2021.
She explained during a virtual panel discussion, dubbed “Sharing decision-making between women and men: an opportunity for Africa,” that ECA was “working closely with member states” to enhance women’s empowerment through data collection and analysis, and reporting on issues affecting women.
Ms Ruzvidzo cited a 2019 report by the ECA titled “Digital Finance Ecosystems – Pathways to Women’s Economic Empowerment in Africa,” as one of several knowledge products the Commission contributes to its member states.
Addis Ababa, 26 February 2021 (ECA) - Policymakers attending the meeting that discussed the partnerships for a free and regulated movement of people in Africa called for stronger collaboration between relevant institutions and governments to address the problems of migrant workers on the continent.
Speaking at the meeting held on 25 February, Ms Thokozile Ruzvidzo, Director of the Gender Poverty and Social Policy Division at ECA said that creating a sustainable environment where African citizens can move inside the continent would not only create the highly needed jobs but also would attract the high levels of trade and development.
“African migrants’ destinations are overwhelmingly not to Europe or North America, but to each other’s countries, said Ms Ruzvidzo. “Between 2000 and 2020 the number of inter-Africa migrants in Africa increased from 15 million to 25 million across Africa”, she stressed.
