A typical example of this is our bi-monthly publication African Agenda: which is in English with lead articles translated into French. Published since 1994, African Agenda reflects TWN-Africa’s concerns and campaigns around issues of economic policy, sustainable development, trade and investment, gender, environment, politics, culture and civil society. It provides cutting-edge analyses on economic and social issues.
