The second edition of the African Conference on Debt and Development (AfCoDDII) brought together civil society organisations, people from academia, representatives of government agencies and ultilateral bodies who gathered in Lilongwe, Malawi on August 2022. The conference was physically attended by 172 participants from 23 different countries. The conference focused on three pillars: the political pillar, research and ideation pillar, and public mobilisation (#SisiNdioTuko). There was a strong re-commitment
from participants to follow up on the demands of the Harare Declaration which calls for a reformed international financial architecture with Africa as “Rule Maker” not a “Rule Taker” in the global financial system.
