In the town of Dukem, outside of Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian authorities have established the Eastern Industrial Zone – the first industrial park of its kind in the country – which has created more than 50,000 new jobs in just a few years. Similarly, the governments of Ghana, Nigeria, and Senegal, among others, are working to build industrial sectors that are diversified, globally competitive, environmentally sustainable, and capable of improving their people’s living standards significantly.
