While sustainability has long been the watchword for development programs, and while many African countries have taken initiatives to develop integrated frameworks that tackle developmental challenges?including poverty, education, and health?financing has remained a challenge. In this book, an expert team of chapter authors examines new financing options while also exploring how traditional financing means, such as foreign aid and foreign direct investment, can be more effective for sustainability. The authors discuss how African nations can build adequate structures and productive capacity to create a platform that can meet present economic, social, and environmental needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Practical case studies and scientific evidence give this book a unique approach that is both qualitative and quantitative. This book will be of interest to students, practitioners, and scholars of development studies, public policy and African economics. . 606 $aEconomic development projects?Finance 606 $aInternational finance 606 $aDevelopment Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/625000 606 $aInternational Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/624000 615 0$aEconomic development projects?Finance. 615 0$aInternational finance. 615 14$aDevelopment Finance. 615 24$aInternational Finance. 676 $a338.96 702 $aEfobi$b Uchenna$f1984-$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAsongu$b Simplice$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299645503321 996 $aFinancing Sustainable Development in Africa$92519966 997 $aUNINA
