Since the 21st century, Africa, Which is rich in resources, with sustained economic development and political emphasis on joint and self-improvement, has gradually attracted the attention of the international community. Considering the factors of ensuring energy security, developing domestic economy and enhancing the status of a great power, India, with its obvious growth in comprehensive national strength, has changed its attitude of neglecting India-Africa relations since the cold war, actively adjusted its policy towards Africa, carried out practical cooperation with Africa, and promoted flexible diplomacy towards Africa. While emphasizing India's traditional friendship and political ties with Africa, expanding its interaction space with Africa and expanding its cooperation mechanism with Africa, it also highlights India's key partner countries and key areas of cooperation in Africa, thus deepening India-Africa cooperative relations, enhancing India's influence in Africa to a certain extent, and enhancing India's voice in the international mechanism. This report analyzes the evolution of India's policy towards Africa, studies the current situation and prospects of the development of India-Africa political, economic, trade ties, people to people exchanges and other relations, and puts forward the current differences between China and India on their cooperation with Africa, and relevant countermeasures from the perspective of think tanks based on the similarities and differences of both countries' policies towards Africa and India's perception of China-Africa cooperation and other issues. The report points out that as an important developing country and emerging economy, India's policy towards Africa and its achievements are of certain significance for China. Once the supporting forces for the national liberation of Africa, both China and India advocated strengthening cooperation with Africa on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and advocating the rights and interests of the third world. In order to adapt to The Belt and Road initiative in Africa, China needs to enrich the China-Africa cooperation mechanism to meet the needs of development of relations between the two countries in the future.
