In a recent discussion, ACET President & CEO, Mavis Owusu-Gyamfi, offered a profound analysis of the stagnation in global financial architecture reforms. She pinpointed three key reasons: ✍🏾 Lack of Unity: African nations often lack a united front in their demands, leading to inconsistent progress. ✍🏾Geopolitical Gridlock: The quota system at the global level creates a stalemate where major powers are reluctant to make the first move. ✍🏾Short-term Focus: Think tanks and civil society frequently shift focus without a long-term, cohesive plan, leading to a cycle of sporadic advocacy. It's important that #Africa maintains momentum and strategic navigation within platforms like the #G20 to achieve meaningful reform.

With the United Nations Summit of the Future knocking at the door, we’ve been reflecting on one key idea: the need to revive ''Multilateralism''. It’s clear that the way nations have been working together hasn’t always been fair or effective, and trust between countries is at an all-time low. But there’s hope. This summit offers a chance to reset. Multilateralism only works when everyone has a seat at the table, and when decisions are made with fairness and economic justice in mind. Real change happens when the focus is on lifting everyone up, not just a select few. Imagine a world where countries come together not just to discuss problems, but to solve them—ensuring no one is left behind. At Symmetric PR, this is the kind of global cooperation we are committed to. The opportunity to reshape how we work across borders is here, and it starts with fairness, justice, and genuine commitment to change. Here’s to hoping this summit sparks the action we all need. #GlobalCollaboration #EconomicJustice #UNSummit #FairnessForAll #SymmetricPR
