In 2022, UN Secretary-General António Guterres established the UN Global Crisis Response Group on Food, Energy and Finance (GCRG) to respond to the unprecedented and interconnected food, energy and finance crises in the world. Africa and Navigating the Current Global Crisis is the first comprehensive book on how Africa and its Diaspora have been affected by, and in turn have responded to, this current global crisis.

Featuring chapters written by contributors from around the globe and various disciplines, authors share their current research on the pertinent issues surrounding the current global crisis as they relate to African people in the African continent and Diaspora. The volume features topics such as Women and Gender, Health, Politics, Education, Economics, Business and Trade, Social, Technology, Religion, the Environment in relation to Global Warming and Climate Change, as well as Peace and Security.

Dealing with real world issues that impact people at all levels, this powerful interdisciplinary collection makes important connections between ideas and concepts across different disciplines, providing readers with a comprehensive overview of how Africa and its Diaspora have been navigating the current global crisis.
