High time for a common integrated African policy on China

The Africa-China Reporting, a Wits Journalism project, held this symposiums to discuss China’s first policy towards Africa which was released in 2006 and a second version which was released in 2015, yet Africa remains without a common policy towards China.

As the current co-chair of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), South Africa is uniquely positioned to guide the consolidation of the African agenda and framework in Africa-China engagements.
