Introduction
The Tumaini Fireside Conversation series aims to create a space where people are able to learn, re learn and unlearn in order to drive the African agenda based on new insights into the African ideology and heritage. In a generation crowded with a lot of information but not knowledge, the Fireside Conversation series strives to share knowledge of the African culture and best practices across the continent to help cover the knowledge gap between the old and the young. This exchange will also enable Africans to identify opportunities, build solutions and invest in building a better Africa.
