The Future is African
from Why It Matters Hosted by Council on Foreign Relations
Projections show that by 2050, Africa’s population will double. By 2100, one in three people on Earth will be African. This means that, by the end of the century, sub-Saharan Africa—which already has an extraordinarily young population—will be home to almost half of the young people in the world. In this episode, two experts examine whether Africa’s youth boom will be a blessing or a curse. Featured Guests: Michelle Gavin (Senior Fellow for Africa Studies, Council on Foreign Relations) John Githongo (Inuka Kenya Trust, CEO and publisher of The Elephant)
