The 77 Percent — The Magazine for Africa's Youth

October 29, 2021

In this week's show, we ask young Africans how Germany's recent election shapes the country's relationship with Africa. We discover how a start-up in Ghana has transformed food waste into a business venture. We learn why the image of Africa as a poor continent is misleading, and meet a returning Tanzanian scientist who founded Africa's first so-called 'Disneyland for science.'
