At the OSC Headquarters, in Addis Ababa, our Book Talk Series topic -explored insights from the publication “Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty” by James A. Robinson and Daron Acemoglu a discussion led by Dr. Getahun Garedew, the Special Advisor to the Secretary-General for Environmental Policy and Climate Action.
A reflection on why nations thrive or fail based on their political and economic institutions, with fascinating examples from history and today’s world. A question of whether culture, weather or geography determines a nation’s success.
The #OSC Book Talk Series confronts both its profound impacts and enduring echoes on “Why Nations Fail”, a challenge to rethink global development. A lesson that echoes the power of inclusivity in our institutions all for the sake of transformative development.
