About this event
Great Decisions Discussion Group - Village Without Walls
Great Decisions is America's largest discussion program on world affairs. The program model involves reading the Great Decisions Briefing Book, watching the DVD and meeting to discuss some of the most critical global issues facing America today.
We read the briefing book article ahead of the meeting, a video is shown at the beginning of the meeting and then everyone takes turns sharing opinions about the topic. This is a friendly group of people who want to gain and share knowledge about what is happening in our world.
You don't need to read the book to participate. Whether you want to join in the discussion or just listen, you are always welcome.
Topic: China in Africa - The Covid-19 crisis has put a massive strain on what was growing a positive economic and political relationship between China and the continent of Africa. As Chinese President Xi Jinping’s centerpiece “Belt and Road initiative” continues to expand Chinese power, the response to the spread of Covid-19, as well as the African government’s growing debt to China, has seen pushback. What are some of the growing economic and political issues between China and Africa?
