The Africa Soft Power Series
The virtual summit brings together some of the most prominent thought leaders and pioneers, focused and passionate about Africa.
According to the website, With so many negative stories about Africa, the theme, ‘Creative Power: Content, Culture and Platforms’ sets the stage for crucial dialogues on how Africa can harness its soft power effectively, to advance strategic interests and shape global conversations.
As the world’s last large, underdeveloped market, the importance of the creative and knowledge industries takes on added significance when we consider that the continent will be home to more than a third of the world’s population and half of the world’s youth by 2100.
In addition, current global affairs underscore that the struggles of African-Americans and people of African heritage are equally the continent’s struggle.
Africa must ensure that its creative, technological and cultural assets translate into tangible engines of social and economic growth for all its people.
