A new Vatican-backed report endorsed by over 30 global experts has found that Africa’s public debt has increased by 183% since 2010, and it also notes that around 57% of the continent’s population reside in countries that spend more on servicing external debt than on education or healthcare. What is also important is that the report presents an actionable roadmap to address the escalating debt and development crisis confronting many nations today.
