About AEDS & the Review

Independent insight in an age of polycrisis

Since 2020 the global economy has faced overlapping shocks: a pandemic, climate change, armed conflicts, geopolitical risks and an unprecedented inflation surge. Together they have permanently altered the economic landscape.

In response, Africa Economic Development Strategies (AEDS), a development think tank, established the Zimbabwe Economic Pulse (ZEP). The ZEP is a flagship report offering hard facts, granular information and forecasts grounded in rigorous economic modelling and analysis.
