In 2020，the official development assistance provided by the international community to sub-Saharan Africa continued to increase 23.14% compared with that of 2019，against the negative impact of COVID-19. Among them，the United States，Germany，France，the United Kingdom and Japan are the top five countries providing the most ODA to Africa. While the emerging donors and private foundations have also played an increasingly important role in helping African countries fight against the epidemic. As Africa’s most important development partner，China also helped Africa to fight against the epidemic and ensure food security and economic recovery through large-scale of medical materials supplying and infrastructure building. However，it should be realized that the spread of the epidemic has made Africa face more severe development challenges and the competition of external powers in Africa has further escalated. This requires the international community to promote cooperation on the global development governance agenda with greater determination，to work together to promote post-pandemic recovery and economic development in Africa
