Abstract

The AfDB's Africa Infrastructure Knowledge Program

The Africa Infrastructure Knowledge Program (AIKP) is a successor program to the Africa Infrastructure Country Diagnostic (AICD) which grew out of the pledge by the G8 Summit of 2005 at Gleneagles to increase substantially ODA assistance to Africa, particularly the infrastructure sector, and the subsequent formation of the Infrastructure Consortium for Africa (ICA). This was against the background that sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) suffers from a weak basic infrastructure base, and that this was a key factor in the SSA region not realizing its full potential for economic growth, international trade, and poverty reduction.

Since 2010, the African Development Bank (AfDB) has taken over leadership for managing the infrastructure database and knowledge work under its Africa Infrastructure Knowledge Program (AIKP). The AIKP builds on the AICD but has a longer-term perspective to provide a platform for: (i) regular updating of the infrastructure database on African countries; (ii) defining and developing analytic knowledge products to guide policy and funding decisions and to inform development policy and program management activities; and (iii) building infrastructure statistical capacity in the region. The AIKP is therefore intended to provide a sustainable framework for generating reliable and timely data on the various infrastructure sectors to guide policy design, monitoring and evaluation and to improve efficiency and delivery of infrastructure services.

The aikp collect a comprehensive data on the infrastructure sectors in Africa-covering power, transport, irrigation, water and sanitation, and information and communication technology (ICT), also the institutional and fiscal issues that cut across infrastructure performance and spending. The institutional issues relate to national level reforms and regulations as well as provider level governance structures in the utility infrastructure sector (energy, water, telecommunications), while the fiscal issues relate to spending and financing of infrastructure.

Africa has been known to experience series of problems among which are poverty, food insecurity, lack of access to energy, lack of infrastructure among others. These problems were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a severe impact on the socioeconomic status of households in Africa. This paper examines the relationship between socioeconomic shocks, social protection, and household food security during the pandemic in Nigeria, the Africa’s largest economy. Using the World Bank’s COVID-19 national longitudinal baseline phone survey (2020) for the analysis and applied the multinomial logit regression, the study finds that socioeconomic shocks resulting from the pandemic have led to an increased level of food insecurity. Social protection programmes have played a crucial role in mitigating the impact of these shocks on households. However, the study also highlights the need for more targeted and effective social protection policies to ensure that vulnerable households are adequately protected from the adverse effects of the pandemic. The findings of this study have important implications for policymakers and stakeholders in Africa’s largest economy, as they seek to address the challenges posed by the pandemic and promote household food security for the actualisation the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of food and nutrition security (SDG2). The study, therefore, recommends that efforts be made to preserve food supply chains by mitigating the pandemic’s effect on food systems, increasing food production, and looking forward beyond the pandemic by building resilient food systems with the use of social protection interventions.

Brazil will host the FIFA World Cup in 2014, which is a worldwide event that occurs every four years and is responsible for moving a large number of people.The preparation to host the World Cup requires high investments in infrastructure that often remains underutilized after the event. The objective of this research is to evaluate whether the infrastructure (stadiums and transport systems) built for the Germany, South Africa and Brazil World Cups are positive legacies for the host countries. The methodology was case study, which was developed from secondary data. The study showed that (1) in Brazil, investments in transport ation systems do not meet the host cities’ real needs, and (2) unlike what happened in Germany, in South Africa stadiums are underutilized, and there are difficulties to maintain them. The perspectives to Brazil are not good and there are great chances that the country will face problems that are similar to those of South Africa.

This paper used annual data for the period 2012–2019 to examine the impact of financial innovations on financial deepening in 34 African countries. Adding novelty to the literature, we also sought to investigate whether the perceived financial deepening instigated by financial innovations actually steered Household Final Consumption expenditure. Five financial innovation indicators namely the Africa Infrastructure Development Index, Automated Teller Machines, bank branches, mobile cellular subscriptions & secure internet servers were used. Financial deepening was proxied by three indicators namely bank deposits, domestic credit to private sector, and broad money. The Panel Corrected Standard Error estimates revealed that all five innovation indicators significantly increased domestic credit to the private sector. Equally, and only with the exception of mobile cellular subscriptions and secure internet servers (for the bank deposit model) & mobile phone subscriptions (for the broad money model), financial innovations significantly increased financial deepening in Africa. Secondly, the effect of financial deepening on consumption expenditure produced mixed results. While domestic credit to the private sector significantly increased the expenditure, bank deposits substantially impeded the same suggesting that financial deepening may not always promote household consumption. Based on the findings, it is apparent that African governments and the financial sector players can indeed leverage on the proliferation of financial innovations in reducing information asymmetry and boosting the access to and affordability of financial products. This widened provision of financial products, notably credit facilities by the financial institutions provides a robust and certain channel for optimizing household consumption and subsequently economic growth.

Objectives: The theory of ecological unequal exchange explains how trade and various forms of economic activity create the problem of environmental degradation, and lead to the deterioration of population health. Based on this theory, our study examined the inter-relationship among economic characteristics, ecological footprints, CO2 emissions, infant mortality rates and under-5 mortality rates in low-income countries. Design: A longitudinal ecological study design. Setting: Sixty-six low-income countries from 1980 to 2010 were included in the analyses. Data for each country represented an average of 23 years (N=1497). Data sources: Data were from the World Development Indicators, UN Commodity Trade Statistics Database, Global Footprint Network and Polity IV Project. Analyses: Linear mixed models with a spatial power covariance structure and a correlation that decreased over time were constructed to accommodate the repeated measures. Statistical analyses were conducted separately by sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and other regions. Results: After controlling for country-level sociodemographic characteristics, debt and manufacturing, economic activities were positively associated with infant mortality rates and under-5 mortality rates in sub-Saharan Africa. By contrast, export intensity and foreign investment were beneficial for reducing infant and under-5 mortality rates in Latin America and other regions. Although the ecological footprints and CO2 emissions did not mediate the relationship between economic characteristics and health outcomes, export intensity increased CO2 emissions, but reduced the ecological footprints in sub-Saharan Africa. By contrast, in Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, although export intensity was positively associated with the ecological footprints and also CO2 emissions, the percentage of exports to high-income countries was negatively associated with the ecological footprints. Conclusions: This study suggested that environmental protection and economic development are important for reducing infant and under-5 mortality rates in low-income countries. data
