CHAPTER

Trade Over Aid: A Path Towards African Prosperity

The chapter follows the journey of a TED fellow from Africa who shifted from advocating for aid to embracing trade and free markets for African economic development. Influenced by speakers like George, Andrew Mwenda, and Ngozi Awele Awea Ela, the guest reflects on how George's 'Hippos versus Cheetahs' talk inspired a change in perspective towards proactive trade practices and self-reliance. The chapter also explores the guest's personal background from Senegal to Germany, sparking curiosity about wealth disparities between countries and questioning common explanations for Africa's poverty.
