Commonwealth Africa Summit Focuses On Youth, Gender Equality


A high level gathering of Africa's decision makers, from across Africa including Ghana's former president John Dramani Mahama, are attending the 5th Commonwealth Africa Summit in London. 

This year's summit is under the theme: "Common Good".
 
Topics under discussion include climate change and improving gender equality and Africa's political future. 

The Commonwealth has its origins in the British Empire – most members were former colonies – and as Henry Ridgwell reports from London, Britain is hoping to rekindle those ties as it leaves the European Union.
