African Growth Opportunity Act (AGOA)
What comes to you mind when your hear about AGOA and its effects on Africa?. Well i think about opportunity, whether it turns out to be true or false that is another topic to discuss. I think it is important to understand what AGOA is all about. Well, in simple terms AGOA offers Sub- Saharan African exporters of Apparel, hand crafted items and , hand-loomed items, and about 1800 non textile items free access to US markets. However their are some requirements that each country has to meet for example placing measures in place to fight against child labor practices, corruption, and ensuring human rights and protecting the rights of workers.
