Podcast: Youth Bulge in Africa: A Blessing or Curse?

With Amabelle Nwakanma

In Africa, we are in a very interesting time in our history, and it is because, in every country of the continent, we have, more than 20 – 30% of young people constituting part of the entire population. And if this youth bulge is harnessed effectively, or seen as capital, it has the opportunity to kick start Africa’s economic narrative. ” – Femi Balogun

This episode seeks to explore what the youth bulge means for Africa and how the continent can leverage this reality.
