Harnessing The Power And Potential Of African Philanthropy

from comm-UNITY! · host comm-UNITY!

Carrying on in the spirit of UBUNTU, we sit down with Dr. Stigmata Tenga, Executive Director of the African Philanthropy Network (APN), who reminds us that philanthropy is both an act of giving and an act of power. While that power has often been guarded by the Global North, Dr. Stigmata highlights the importance of shifting that power back in our own hands as Africans, dismantling systems of inequality, and recovering the dignity of communities that have been undermined and undervalued. African Philanthropy is community centered, and while it is often overlooked, she also shares how its value has been  brought to the fore during this COVID-19 pandemic, as communities took support and solidarity into their own hands.
