On Friday, Malaya Ordynka, a street in the center of Moscow, was dominated by Africa. And as for the calendar, the day before, on May 25, the world celebrated the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Organization for African Unity, now this date is celebrated as World Africa Day.

And as for academic studies. The HSE Center for African Studies presented their new research here at the College of World Economics and Politics. The title is simple: “Africa 2023: opportunities and risks”. Because this is not a complex academic study, but a practical instruction for businessmen, journalists, young politicians and even tourists – in a word, everyone who is interested in this mysterious southern continent.

And even a booklet was made with a QR code to download the book (handed out to presentation guests) in the style of Maasai-Nilotic patterns.

The opening speech of the rector of HSE, Nikita Anisimov, began with irony:

— After I talked about my business trips to Africa a year ago, these business trips ended.

And then he hit the well-known poems of Chukovsky:

– Go, children, to Africa for a walk! And economically, and in tourism, and politically. For us, Africa is an important partner, where there are many different ancient cultures,” Anisimov noted.

The book by his HSE colleagues answers the main questions about the continent in understandable language. What are the demographic trends in Africa? How to do business there? Why do the locals love Russia?

The authors are confident that their work will become a reference book for everyone preparing for the Russia-Africa summit in the next two months. [грандиозное мероприятие с участием всех стран континента, намечено на 26-29 июля 2023 года в Петербурге — прим. ред.]
