RTA full trans negro

ReThinking Africa (RTA) is a new open German business initiative that is committed to changing the perspective on Africa. In the public perception, Africa is seen as the continent of the three ‘Cs’: crisis, corruption, conflict. Despite the unmistakable problems of our neighbouring continent, this image is skewed because, firstly, it suggests that Africa is homogeneous and, secondly, it fails to recognise the progress that individual countries and regions have made in recent decades. We therefore counter the three ‘Cs’ with four ‘Ws’: Dignity, Consistency, Effectiveness and Efficiency. It is about cooperation on an equal footing that combines the potential for local economic and social development with business models in Germany in a coherent way.

These four ‘Ws’ are most likely to be realised by intensifying fair economic relations that create jobs and income on both sides; ideally, this is done through trade and investment, with the latter being the more sustainable strategy. In terms of investment relations, RTA is in favour of a more pragmatic Africa policy. With new approaches, it wants to move away from the traditional cliché of an entire continent as a development project for people in need. The new institution’s motto is to develop the economy, create jobs and create win-win situations for both sides through sustainable investment.

The aim of the RTA is to identify specific projects with the involvement of African business partners and to develop them with the help of relevant companies and financial institutions. The new organisation is committed to directly linking the networks of industrial partners, investors and entrepreneurs in Africa and Europe to promote new business models and partnerships. RTA also wants to facilitate their access to capital. As an important prerequisite for political stability in the respective countries, the aim is to create sustainable jobs through local value creation.

With Voice4Africa, Kleber Group is the contact partner for the tourism division of the ReThinking Africa Initiative, utilising its global network in the travel industry.
