Africans' stories

Magatte Wade of Senegal wants the image of African people to change - not only in the view of the people of donating countries, but also in the minds of Africans.  Her goal is to see Africans respected all over the world in her lifetime.



She urges people from her "beloved continent" to take inspiration from world-class achievers in Africa.

She's a "serial entrepreneur," but knows that most people just want jobs   . . which come when [the]  "few of us who are entrepreneurs start these organizations, these companies, that in return create the jobs that the majority of us want so badly.

 We all have the same job: create something with whatever is it that you have. The goal is not to sit there and be a recipient of betterness and not having done anything for it… I think as a human being, we all have it in us: the need to contribute.
