حديث الثلاثاء : الجنوب ومستقبل الدراسات الاستشرافية في زمن الذكاء الاصطناعي

October 24, 2023

لقد ظلت سيناريوهات المستقبل والدراسات المستقبلية لفترة طويلة جدًا، بعيدة عن قائمة القضايا المتعلقة بأفريقيا، والآن أصبح من الواضح أكثر فأكثر أن مستقبل كوكبنا يتم صناعته في أفريقيا  بشكل متزايد، سواء كان المرء يتعامل مع إشكاليات الأزمات البيئية وتغير المناخ واللاجئين والطاقة المتجددة وما إلى ذلك، وهو ما يعني أن أفريقيا عادت لتحتل مكانة بارزة في جدول الأعمال الدولي. في حلقة هذا الأسبوع من برنامج حديث الثلاثاء، سنناقش أهمية دراسات المستقبل والتوقعات في سياق القضايا العالمية وتأثيرها على دول الجنوب. سنتناول موضوع الاهتمام بالدراسات الاستشرافية في زمن الذكاء الاصطناعي وكيف يمكن أن تساهم في فهم تحديات المنطقة واحتياجاتها المستقبلية. سنحاول كذلك فهم تأثير التكنولوجيا والخوارزميات على المجتمع والسياسات العامة، وسنناقش كيف يمكن تقليل الفوارق في التعاطي مع الإشكاليات العالمية بين دول الجنوب والشمال.

    Africa’s population is projected to reach almost 2.5 billion by 2050. Migration from Africa to the EU is relatively stable, at around 500,000 migrants per year, or 0.1 percent of the EU population, yet irregular immigration into the EU has increased recently. Development is often seen as the way to reduce migration but the development-migration nexus is complex. At low levels of development, migration might increase with rising GDP per capita. This applies to most of sub-Saharan Af ...

    Chinese investors are increasingly interested in Africa. Some criticize them for privileging mining investments. A 2017 analysis of these investments shows that investments in mining have not been the only ones privileged by the Chinese operators. Many other sectors such as transport and energy have benefited from Chinese investments, much more so than the mining sector, for example. ...

    We argue in this paper that electricity production needs to be multiplied by a large factor in the coming years for East Africa to reach the economic growth rate it deserves after the improvement of its socio-political situation. The rural electrification rate in North Africa as represented for instance by Morocco was higher than 99.50% in the first quarter of 2017 while it was barely 10% in some parts of Western Kenya. We also make the case for hydroelectricity as the adequate ren ...

    In comparison to previous decades, remarkable economic performance accompanied the entry of African economies into the new millennium. The agricultural sector, which remains the cornerstone of economic and social development, has not remained on the sidelines. Overall, this sector continues to show robust growth, driven by an increase in productivity, measured in part and overall terms. However, lower-level results point to serious disparities and a need to strengthen progress towar ...

    L’entrée des économies africaines dans le nouveau millénaire s’est accompagnée de performances économiques remarquables, par rapport aux décennies antérieures. Le secteur agricole, qui demeure la clé de voûte du développement économique et social, n’est pas resté en marge. Globalement, ce secteur continue d’enregistrer une croissance robuste, tirée par une hausse de la productivité, mesurée de façon partielle et globale. Les résultats à plus basse échelle laissent toutefois entrevoi ...

    Dans un contexte mondial de plus en plus préoccupé par les aléas climatiques, comprendre l’impact de la croissance économique sur l’environnement devient crucial, notamment pour les pays en voie de développement. Ce papier aborde cette problématique sous le prisme des émissions de dioxyde de carbone (CO2) et examine comment la croissance économique se répercute sur l’environnement. L’objectif de cette étude est de tester la validité de la courbe environnementale de Kuznets (CEK) pou ...

    Since the fall of the Derg regime in 1991, cordial relations have developed between China and Ethiopia, forming a positive political backdrop in front of which the two countries’ interests have increasingly converged. On the one hand, Ethiopia seeks to replicate the experience of East Asian countries such as Taiwan, Malaysia, or China and to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) in order to accelerate the development of its manufacturing capacities (in particular through an ambit ...
