      How to Write About Africa
      2022-03-28

      Storytelling is the most powerful way
      for donor and non-governmental organisations to convey their work because
      stories allow audiences to connect on both intellectual and emotional levels. However, much of the storytelling about development work in Africa is unethical and perpetuates harmful and stereotypical narratives about the continent.
