Addendum:

In boarding school at Presbyterian Boys' Secondary School, Legon, we grew up reading famous quotes of luminaries vandalizing our class and boarding room buildings πŸ€«; from Socrates to Nelson Mandela, Wangari Mathaai to Alan Turing. Understandably, most of them we would never get to interact with personally.

In college at University of Florida, a group of us after a Martin Luther King weekend diversity and inclusion retreat: Gatorship, in our accountability circle went round and articulated, dreamt + aspired to leave long-lasting impactful legacies we would not necessarily be remember for.

Mine? To be the conduit for validating the experiences and audaciousness of young people regardless of who we are or where on the African continent we are from. ✊🏾
⭐️ We all look up to folks to be mentors
⭐️ Most often we forget we are the ones someone, somewhere also looks up to
⭐️ What are YOU doing to be the salt and light of your corner?

Each one, reach one. #Urithi

Africa Continental Free Trade Agreeement

AfricaWeWant The devil is always in the details & getting it right.

In an article submission to iAfrikan Heather Mavunga explores the AfCFTA - Africa Continental Free Trade Area pros & challenges as the agreements has been ratified by 20+ states to date.



"Negotiating the detailed agreement timeously between nations is critical to ensure a development-oriented, balanced, comprehensive and modern agreement that can foster structural transformation at a granular state level, create jobs across regional economic communities whilst simultaneously reducing poverty. Emmanuel Gamor, a World Economic Forum Global Shaper and owner of education consulting group Kanea believes that in keeping with multilateral norms of negotiation, “special-interest technical negotiating groups” may help speed up the overall negotiation."



I had a chance to share the need for multi-stake holder engagement on this relevant agreement: with youthful voices, innovative practices and insight woefully missing from top level engagement on all-fronts. #BetterMustCome

Insightful, nuanced article by Heather Tinotenda Mavunga on AfCFTA
