Integration of Regional Value Chains: Targeting and Positioning Strategies for African Continental Free Trade Area - An Algerian Perspective

Öz

Algeria’s integration into regional value chains offers an important opportunity to boost growth and competitiveness in a changing global economy. This article examines Algeria’s prospects within the AfCFTA (African Continental Free Trade Area), focusing on opportunities, risks, key success factors, and comparative advantages. A regional comparison with other African countries is provided, along with a discussion on the challenges and sustainability of such integration. The study also highlights strategies that can help Algeria position itself more effectively in regional value chains to support sustainable and inclusive development. While progress in regional integration is visible, successful cases of participation in value chains remain limited, often restricted to low value-added stages. Yet, global value chains can play a key role in connecting developing economies to world markets and in helping SMEs expand their export capacity.
