“Africa Needs Science, Not Aid”
November 10, 2014 | Blog
The claim is a bold one. Africa needs science, not aid. While Africa continues to experience an economic boom, with Nigeria leading as the continent’s largest economy, its growth is based largely on extraction of natural resources by foreign firms rather than boosting industrial productivity. Authors Nkem Khumbah and Melvin Foote make the point that [...]

Local communities ‘sidelined’ in development research
