Dr. Chukwuka Onyekwena participated at the Consultation with Southern-based Think Tanks for the 2019 Human Development Report which was co-hosted by the United Nations Office for South­South Cooperation (UNOSSC) and the Human Development Report Office (HDRO). The consultation was organised specifically to: (i) hear stakeholder’s perspectives and experiences from Southern-based think tanks relating to inequality and related sub-themes, identify broad contours, and scope on the specific issues; and (ii) discuss key policy options and promote buy-in among the stakeholders. The meeting also aimed to gather the perspectives and experiences from Southern-based think tanks relating to inequality that will feed into the formulation of the 2019 Human Development Report.  Dr. Onyekwena discussed technology, which is likely to widen inequality especially in Africa, given the differential access to technology between countries. The consultation was held on 18 July 2019, at UN HQ in New York, USA. The 2019 Human Development Report (HDR 2019) is scheduled to be released towards the end of this year; the report will focus on understanding relevant dimensions of inequality to people’s wellbeing.
