Angola: an African country to watch in 2020

On 21 January 2020, the EUISS and the Africa Working Party of the Council of the EU (COAFR) jointly organised the sixth meeting on sub-Saharan Africa in Brussels.

The meeting looked at political and economic developments in Angola and expectations for the year ahead. Dr Fernando Jorge Cardoso (University Institute of Lisbon) gave a reading of main current and future policy challenges, focusing on domestic politics, particularly João Lourenço’s reform agenda, Angola’s foreign relations and role in regional peace and stability.

EUISS-COAFR meetings are coordinated and chaired by EUISS Senior Analyst Giovanni Faleg.
