In his keynote address at BNC#7 in Hermanus, South Africa's Deputy President Paul Mashatile unpacked the ongoing efforts of the nation's Government of National Unity (GNU). Reflecting on the nation's economic journey, he outlined the Government of National Unity's (GNU) ambitious plans to tackle poverty, inequality, and unemployment through structural reforms, inclusive growth, and job creation. From land reform to combating corruption and navigating global trade challenges, Mashatile emphasized collaboration across sectors to build a prosperous, equitable South Africa by 2030 and beyond.
