Creating Jobs for African Millennials - What will it take?

By 2050 Africa will account for the highest population growth in the world at 1.3 billion.

This increase in population will demand a strong investment in skills development, education and job creation in order to meet the current and future employment needs .

1. Can innovation and technology be an acceleration tool?
2. Which economic approach will work best?
3. What role can we as young Africans play in creating the Africa we want?

In celebration of Africa Day with A Better Africa With Tech I am going to engage in a conversation with founders and thought leaders currently contributing to the discussion of creating an Africa that will harness the power and potential of it's young people.

Our speakers :

James Shikwati a Kenyan libertarian economist and Director of the Inter Region Economic Network, which promotes freedom of trade as the driving solution to poverty in Africa.

Dr. J?rg Kleis Co-Founder of AfricaWorks and also in charge of Clients & Partnerships.
