In 2020, MISTRA developed a working paper to seek clarity on how COVID-19 impacts geopolitical relations around the world, with an emphasis on relations between China and Africa. The working paper, drafted on MISTRA’s behalf by Dr Philani Mthembu (Executive Director of the UNISA Institute for Global Dialogue), unpacks some of the geopolitical dynamics affected by the pandemic, including the global role of China.
