Accra Reset Dialogue, hosted by President John Dramani Mahama, convenes world leaders on the sidelines of the 81st United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York. The discussion aims to address structural issues within the global development system and to rebuild cooperation with a focus on practical sovereignty, enhanced execution capacity, and shared prosperity for the Global South and beyond.
The concept was sparked by a conversation between President Mahama and former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo, after the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent drop in development funding, especially for vaccine production. President Obasanjo's proposal suggested a strategy involving experienced African leaders to collectively explore the continent's challenges and devise lasting solutions, leading to the Accra Reset Convening and positioning Ghana as a venue for reforming global development cooperation.
This latest Global Reset Dialogue offers leaders another chance to assess the evolving global development environment and contemplate practical methods for establishing a more sustainable and responsive system.
