Ghanaian journalist and host of the Diplomatic Affairs Show on Pan African TV, Harriet Nartey was one of the few journalists from Africa present at the just-ended New Global Financing Pact Summit in France organized by the French government and led by its President Emmanuel Macron.

In a post on her Twitter page, she said

“A rare opportunity it was to have been in the same room with Presidents of France and Kenya, the U.S. Secretary of Treasury, IMF Managing Director, Kristalina Georgieva and President of the World Bank, Ajay Banga leading conversations about the New Global Financing Pact spearheaded by the French government”.

Harriet Nartey has in recent times been on a roll. This new feat comes on the back of a successful moderator role at the just ended National Blue Summit which had the President and other top officials in attendance.

The objective of the Summit was to build a new contract between the countries of the North and the South to address climate change and the global crisis. It also addressed key issues like reform of multilateral development banks, debt crisis, innovative financing and international taxes and special drawing rights (SDRs)
