On April 8, Esade Alumni held the Refresher Program session “Power Over Progress: How Politics Shape Development Finance in Africa,” delivered by Keyi Tang. The talk examined how political competition and domestic incentives influence the allocation of development funds across African countries. Drawing on data and case studies, the speaker showed how actors such as China and the World Bank may prioritize political interests over actual needs. The session offered a critical perspective on the challenges and opportunities for rethinking development cooperation in the Global South.
