Why ASDT is Hosting The Sandton Symposium 2025
The transition to digital value is the most profound systemic shift since currency itself. For Africa, this is a fleeting window to reclaim sovereignty. This thought leadership perspective from The Ndege Group outlines the bold architecture required—from a unified African digital currency to the United African Defence Force© (UADF) and unified African maritime border—to replace extractive debt structures with equitable self-determination.
The Triumph of Systems: Why Structure, Not Sentiment, Will Define Africa's Future
Africa’s story has long been shaped by the vast potential of its people countered by weak structures. While political ideals like democracy and freedom are vital, true transformation arises from resilient systems. Despite holding 30% of the world’s mineral reserves, Africa loses $88.6 billion annually to illicit financial flows and faces a $402 billion financing shortfall. The real challenge lies in execution—building robust systems grounded in a lasting moral commitment. The Ndege Group advocates a path to continental self-determination through systemic change, from realising the AfCFTA to creating sovereign financial infrastructure that prioritises African interests.
