Peace and security, macro-economic governance, economic development and trade and social issues should top the future dialogue at high level and ministerial level, MEPs and members of the Pan-African said. They quoted the fight against tax evasion and illicit financial flows, potential of intra-African trade and the need for minimum standards at the continental level in the social field as examples.
