SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
Africa's working-age population is set to surge by over 624 million by 2050 — but are the continent's economies growing fast enough to keep up?

From agricultural transformation and industrial policy to lessons from East Asia, Diop makes the case for a bold, three-pillar strategy to create jobs at scale for Africa's next generation.
