“My students know that there are problems with the development and aid industries and can even offer biting critiques of celebrity interventions in aid programs in Africa. But they believe that they can do it better, that their generation understands the failures and can solve them, and that their intentions are pure enough to overcome cynics” –Kathryn Mathers
WHAT ABOUT OUR CELEBRATED YOUNG AFRICAN LEADERS AND PROFESSIONALS – CAN THEY DO GLOBAL ‘AID’, ‘TRADE’ & ‘DEBT’ BETTER?
I think they can if are given time and means to do so. Young feel more connected to them. Young people feel, they are likely listen by young leader, though this many not be necessarily 100%. A good leader is a good leader regardless their age. But lets remember not only young leaders in politics but also in other spheres as well.
