Afrika besitzt große wirtschaftliche Stärken in Form eines enormen Rohstoffreichtums, einer sehr jungen und wachsenden Bevölkerung sowie eines hohen langfristigen Wachstumspotenzials. Gleichzeitig wird die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung vieler Länder durch politische Instabilität, schwache Institutionen, unzureichende Infrastruktur und teils starke Abhängigkeit von Rohstoffexporten gebremst. Zentrale Wirtschaftssektoren sind die Landwirtschaft, die für Beschäftigung und Ernährungssicherung entscheidend ist, sowie der Bergbau und die Rohstoffförderung. Daneben gewinnen der Energiesektor, Telekommunikation, Handel und in einigen Regionen auch Industrie und Tourismus zunehmend an Bedeutung.
