Institutional Fragility in Africa is a major challenge that affects governance, economic growth, and the delivery of public services across many African countries. On EMS, we discussed how weak institutions, corruption, poor financial management, and limited administrative capacity contribute to institutional fragility. These challenges often reduce public trust in governments and make it difficult for states to provide essential services such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, and social protection. The discussion emphasized that strong institutions are important for promoting stability, accountability, and sustainable development in Africa.
