“It’s important to decolonise and deconstruct the idea that in the midst of poverty there is no pleasure. There is. And we should take it to scale.” Closing reflections from @iampatsam #Africain2019 @royafrisoc

The biggest threat to humankind is “affluenza”. We’ve been led to believe that achieving a better life is about acquiring more and more material possessions. We need to redefine what “being” a human is. - @kuminaidoo #AfricaBeing #AfricaIn2019 @royafrisoc

“The way we measure growth is fundamentally flawed. We need to take into account the planetary limits to economic growth. We need to support the search for new economic thinking.” @kuminaidoo at @royafrisoc #Africain2019

“We must learn something from the feminist movement we have refused to learn - intersectionality is the missing ingredient in terms of how African civil society operates.” @KumiNaidoo @royafrisoc #Africain2019

African 'being' and resilience manifests itself in the arts and culture - this is how we resist oppression and decolonise the system @iampatsam #Africain2019

“The biggest obstacle to change in #Africa is the habit of exploiting the African body, the land, the spirit. But at the same time Africans overcome. How do we monetise that? Creative industries are the solution.” The formidable @iampatsam at #Africain2019 @royafrisoc panel

African visitors have their visas applications to the UK refused twice as often as the average, harming trade, business, culture, religious & academic links - an issue affecting many of those we work. @ChiOnwurah raises the issue ahead of a meeting today with the @AfricaAPPG twitter.com/ChiOnwurah/sta…
