FOCAC: trade and investment for development

Taking Africa’s development objectives and needs into account, China has also implemented 50 aid projects to boost Africa’s capacity for trade and investment facilitation.
The following video in our series on China-Africa cooperation gives more details on a few of the partnerships.
