I run a podcast show I find particularly fascinating, you will too.
Through conversations with practitioners, researchers, academics and topic experts, we discuss the development challenges facing Africa and some of the practical solutions on offer to address and in other cases rethink them.
Have a listen, and do share your thoughts!
Some highlights:

The episodes
Asian Aspiration Podcast Series
The Asian Aspiration Podcast brings a series of thought-provoking and practical insights from the book ‘The Asian Aspiration: Why Africa Should Emulate Asia, And How it Shouldn’t.’
Through conversations with the co-authors, policy-makers, political actors and topic experts, I had the chance to talk through the practical implications of Asia’s story for Africa’s challenges in the 21st century.
The series features myself as the host and regular appearances by the co-authors – this was a fun one!
