Covid-19 and security in Africa

 

Inter-community violence in some countries could be exacerbated by the economic repercussions of the Covid-19 crisis and its impact on food security. In addition, attacks by armed groups, militias and terrorist organizations have not ceased. On the contrary, they have plunged Burkina Faso, Mali and Somalia into critical situations. The APSACO Talks will also evolve around the consequences of the borders closure and travel bans on security, and the measurement tools of peace in Africa.
