How can African countries take leadership in the global fight against climate change? Can we build the infrastructure needed to kick off transformative economic growth on the continent? Is the path to peace in the Horn of Africa any closer? And will leaders be able to provide the jobs needed to harness the potential of a huge generation of young Africans?
