Really enjoying this series, a wide range of interesting topics!

Description

Welcome to Limitless, the podcast series that  asks the questions which matter to Africa.


Are tech start-ups the answer to Africa's unemployment problem? Can we stop fake news from spreading on the continent? How do we raise a generation of football stars? 


These are just some of the topics we’ll be tackling.


And we’re not looking for simple answers. Just as Africa’s potential is limitless, so are the possible solutions to any challenges the continent faces.


During each podcast episode, we’ll be asking three very different subject experts to give their take on each question. This will come as no surprise but they don’t always agree.


Made possible with a grant from the U.S. Department of State and the Seenfire Foundation.


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
