Emmanuel Katto wishes Africa to be a global leader through its mineral wealth

Emmanuel Katto's propositions intend to shift the paradigm by encouraging African countries to take a proactive role in the global economy. Rather than passively exporting raw minerals, his proposals emphasize the importance of value addition and local utilization of resources. By investing in downstream industries and nurturing domestic innovation, African governments can retain a larger share of the mineral value chain and spur greater economic growth.
