Joining us on the program now is germanys Development Minister span. Yeah. Schultz. Who is also president of this a how alliance and she joins us now. From why gotta do good. Welcome to the program. Youve had a meeting with looking at fossils, military rulers. Why did you choose to meet them . Especially considering germany and the oppose military takeovers. Hey, we would prefer to work with democracy, so around the world. But the fact is that most of the people live in a top course take us up to graphic systems. So we need to deal also with them. We want to fight Climate Change. We want to take care that people can stay home and do not need to migrate. And with all these questions, we need to Work Together in the world. And that means we also need to have on exchange with the governments like that. And what kind of fossil thats not easy, but that this the fact we need to deal with jimmys corporation. We book enough so now focuses on meeting peoples basic needs. How fall can that go under these conditions . Were talking about of the, lets not the easy, there is no black and white where we can work with, with, we know if we are not in the region. So that will be space for others. We comp live the leave this region. So the russians. So we need to stay engaged, so we need to fight against the terrorist. Um, to be quite honest terrorist, they dont failed water systems. They dont take care full health systems. They dont take care for you cation, but that is needed for the future of this country. If we want to fight against terrorist, we need a perspective for all the young people here and perspective that meets jobs. That means a government that works also on the local level. And that is something were working on in the saw hill alliance, but also with our cheer and corporation. And so hes an acknowledgement that they have been problems on the military side. And you think development is sort of the better way the more effective way to go about tackling these problems. Yes, we need these Development Corporation because there is no security without development. And so we need to tackle the problems of the people why they get in contact with terrorist, why they have no other perspective. And that means investing in jobs, investing in the future of the people here. And that is what we are doing with the sidelines. 20 a 1000000000 euros are in the region. That is a clear reaction. That means we want to stay engaged. We want to be the better part. And else for the regions. How would you like ensure accountability and the long term sustainability of these projects . You know, were talking 20000000000, thats a lot of money. But on the, the current Political Climate and some of these countries looking at 5 so and its neighbors which i havent challenges with democracy. Yes, that is the challenge also for us because we like to invest also in democratic structures. We like to Work Together with the democracies about here in the region. There are a autocratic systems and there are a lot of problems that we need to deal with. Im fighting against terrorism, fighting against Climate Change of that, that full, we need to Work Together. So that is why we work with regional level. We work with local authorities. We. We work with the ones who were able to talk to about the ones who wants to continue the work with us. That is not the easy, but i think that is the way we need to go to fight against others who want to take place in that region. And im just wondering, did you say all of this looking at a book enough also and these countries are those similar challenges . What is your biggest concern as well i think that it was more than one called slower. And i think of seeing how effective these region is by Climate Change thing, such a lot of young people with no perspective, with no education, with the, with job perspectives. That is something that needs to change. And that is something we are working on. We need to Work Together with the governments here in the region. We need to work on the local level to, to give a better perspective, more security, more education, more jobs. Because that is something that affect the soul, soul, germany, it seems to be far away. Thought the african continent as our neighbor and what is happening here that affects all sol. So in germany that affects us in europe. A. So it is a good advice to Work Together also with lakes region. Ok. So explain your show to german minute stuff. Economic development, we appreciate your time. Thank you very much for speaking to us. Youre watching dw news africa still to come of the as the economy bytes in many countries. The president of the African Development bank tells us why theres still hope for the future. And we get a glimpse into the space is allowing nigerians to let house the stress gone as president says, hes waiting on a Supreme Court ruling before he acts on a new l g b t q. Bill dfcs is already illegal in the country, but the latest legislation would extend the band to same sex displays of affection as well as lobbying for l. G. B t. 2 activities on the bill has considerable support locally and thats a worry for the command. It targets as dw, as a collegiate report from across slowly ne, real name is b, but he hasnt come out in public because if he is he will be attacked. He says, amendments of gun is o g, b t q plus community. Were already leaving with this rate a full full beat vollings. And you on c o, u b t q plus low water mix things even ways life has actually changed for the worse for me personally. And i am not just here to speak on my own personal behalf, because ive seen this played out in other peoples lives. The level of fear has increased the level of isolation as increased. Since the 16th a cost is already illegal in gun a punishable by up to 3 years in prison, that he must sex your rights and family values. Bills would further restricted their rights of o g, b t q. Passings with your attempts for identifying as the promoting o g p t q activities, the time urging a lot of dynamics to go and read the bill and see what this bill is because it is not a bill that is supposed to promote, can a and family values, this is a bill of real hatred and vengeance. That is what the bill actually is. Rights groups have condemned. The bill is a cost implications for organ use. It is not only do with people, i mean the media, you can go to praise it. The other awesome media person for publishing news that is quasi that to be promoted. So the idea that we have to stifle knowledge that we have to withhold or the production of knowledge in a way that its, you know, its that you only have to speak them a certain way that supports discrimination against other members of the company. The bed is right, but that much of the bill has the backing of religious and traditionally is its also supported by many good news with conservative believes in my, my opinion is a good that because everybody we americans have their house so we have on college. So i think something that we call so thats we are todays most accepted and we need to get a quote to actually have to go. We have a quote that i forgot to put yet. So while, while i deal with you get to point to as you see. Yeah, i dont know the account was really dependent on 3, but we dont spend unless, if you allow that with, if not they to want to ask everything such outside opinions, having a name to waynes gun. I, as in the midst of an economic crisis, the finance ministry has warned the president that signing the controversial building to low good, close the country below is of dollars in much needed funding from the world fund. So lets say is if the bill becomes low, his future lies outside of done a i will definitely hide and i will leave. I will not choose to stay in a country that sees me as a criminal. I refused to, i refused to be gagged. I refused to be seen as a criminal. I refused to be criminalized because of who i am as a person. But for now, silly is being in the group. That is supreme quotes in the president decide against gun is trying to give you. The inflation has been shooting up and several african countries. People are finding the incomes and not keeping up with the rising cost of living. This has led to some public protests most recently in my jerry a way inflation hit a 30 year high in january. But the africa Development Bank says the continents economies are growing and will continue an upward trend over the next 2 years. The price of that will actually outpaced the global average. What does that look like in bread and butter terms . What does life really look like for the average african, weve got some opinions. As many people have lost drugs, many company have closed down as a result of the costs of baby, because you cannot afford to continue buying the do the production costs is how are you feeling with this whole thing . You know, you buy, talk to the people, friends and you like to buy this quite expensive. You go for a website and find yourself sort of downgrading your life, but definitely have to think about it before. Ill go and buy a flock cheese and the high cost of living as it really affected me of that i can pass on because you find a setting up a business. And these are going to make things. Its very hard and costly. Im not asking the government to make everything cheap, but im asking for the standards to be affordable to everyone, the taxes on us really. And i just meant of taxes. And so i sat aside and you are not able to pay the services and come with these as before on the bill for uh, theres no hope of so or a bit to see what you, they go you just for the, for us. This is in to fight for a while, all right, the solution to inducing the cost of living going to be giving from us, but the lives the subsidized fertilizer and those think giving them the message that you sent. Lets speak now to the president of the African Development bank and up to i can well me a day she know. Thank you very much for your time. Thank you for joining us on dw news africa. These are tough Economic Times at the moment. How can african countries respond to these the circumstances to prevent social unrest . My question from us as lights on that side of things right. About the advocates, you know, thats my whole the head ways that i havent got faces globally in terms of little by insulation. But also in terms of rice, in depth levels and the precision of conferences and ive cost Climate Change advocate continues to post february resident growth. And in fact, 11 out of the 20 countries that are in the world. The Fastest Growing countries in the world actually enough, got so african economies applied to isnt it . But i think the major issues that we have to make sure that we do is to continue to provide a lot of construction of financing to applicant countries. Because as to the typically effect of the call, the 19 situation bad countries to copying with many of the consequentialist speaking of Climate Change. Can you go into some of these meetings with, with these a global um it these, these global sessions. A lot of these big polluters make commitments about what theyre going to do in terms of compensating and supporting the, the, the poor a countries. But we see these commitments. We hear these commitments, but we dont actually see them being followed through how do you make sure these countries are held accountable . Love today. Advert allergies between 7. 00 and 15000000000. 00 a yeah. Because of Climate Change. So it gives you is to make sure that we support advocate that did not cost Climate Change to be able to adapt to Climate Change. And thats what were doing at an applicant Development Bank. But in addition to that, we have major programs. Were showing Global Leadership on this particular age appointment for applicants. We have whats called the african disaster risk each other as facilities, which essentially simply just pays for premiums of countries or to be able to get compensated or get to pay outs when they fix actually giving us and, and the boss, theres an impasse with Climate Change and it works well, whats in my, we, weve talked about maybe, you know, i mean as a pharmacy, but always at that phase drives. Its helped, you know, a, by 1000000 flaws from us. The amount of gas got that, that had that weve done it in new jersey throughout all the countries. How can african countries grow their own internal expertise and funding for Development Initiatives for the, you know, as we talked about Climate Change, but also even things like uh, supporting structures against corruption. For example, how can all these be built almost independently . If i put it that way, it look, africa has the dates, the highest edition of sunlight in the world. And the apple, it has a 60, by 60 percent of the Water Resources in solar africa, should be a global pot house when it comes to sort of renewable energy, i think has today 65 percent of the remaining oncology, but unable land of the world. So applique, i should be a little pat. Hows info the culture . If you take a look at the modern, almost 5073000. 00, thats going to come in the future from the electric cause and also batteries and all of that. You know, advocates where you have a couple, you have the leads him, you have the cobalt, so you have any of these graphite of all the things. So i think i should be back. So what im saying is that id be african, develop a big, we take pride in marketing, advertising, investment destination. Thats important, but you have to mobilize a lot more domestic resources. So one of the areas we, i think advocate guns is going to do better. And they need to do better. We support is how they, they get paid for their natural resources. What should i say not get paid well for that natural resources. I really think that if we are able to get good Public Financial Management done, make sure that we have money in that natural resources, better bills, price then very, very well mix are those that need to pay taxes up in taxes and battle you can will devise a lot more resources and mitchell here i have the instructor would change in the i would go through the select up to make sure we can actually do that. So were going to be able to deal with many, many of these agents. Okay. Well have to leave at that, but thank you very much, dr. Can you me a dish, you know, president of the africa Development Bank. Thanks for your time or thank you very much. The, the stresses of life on numerous, everything from the rising cost of living to the search for a new job. So thing out ones personal life or even outrage at news events. Solider, you address these issues in lagos, nigeria, dw, only. So i took them, i went to a so called rage room, which offers a space to let it all out. You need protective headgear gloves and overall, and boots for these kind of stress relief. Ive brought some stress with me is taking me more than 2 hours to get here twice as long as it should. Yeah. Well, when it comes to lego, driving really makes me hungry about to pick. I pulled up 1st restaurant inside the range room. Im gonna put it ready for the kids. Id say to get put, im ready to smash. Thats go the. Uh huh. That was really exit are right. That was i really thought they were all emotion. Honey was also quite fun. Sorry. No way. I wasnt in this room attract some young people as a new way of paying attention to the mental health. I feel good. I feel like some weights ive been listed or something has just come out because i find a way to creatively express and deal with reach in the region. So being able to actually be in the room where you are allowed to basically break things, smashed things and just release your so from those on goods that you will be unable to believe its honestly medicine. No, its like taking medicine for a dix as james banjo. Sets up this, the 1st raids room inmate julia in november of 2022 is a medical doctor who says he felt concerned about how people both are loved. Yeah, and so people come for phone. That is one part of it just to come and try something out. You will see some people that come because they have genuine things that have budgeting them. Maybe as well. Maybe as family maybes relationship wise, may be some motional now nights and that percent of the time. We express less of the guy that we feel. James banjo says this is nothing alternative to pop up therapy. But for less than 10. 00, a session smashing of stuff, you know, redrew might be an option for those who would like to, lets off some steam thats all the rage for now. But before we go, well take you back to book enough as those capital where we came across a public off show. Its a collaboration of the to the land based office.
