In today's episode of Daily Insights on Africa, we explore why Africa is entering a new phase of economic integration, moving beyond agreements to implementation.

We unpack the latest insights from the WTO on the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), discuss why stronger research and evidence-based trade policy matter, examine Africa's push to finance industrialisation, and look at the growing call for African countries to process minerals like lithium before export instead of shipping raw materials abroad.

We also cover encouraging developments in agriculture and regional trade, including West Africa's drive towards rice self-sufficiency, Uganda's first processed beef exports to Ethiopia, Ethiopia's record coffee export earnings, and Tanzania's new digital trade platform.

If you're an entrepreneur, investor, exporter, policymaker, or simply interested in Africa's economic future, this episode will help you understand what these developments mean and where the opportunities are.
