Glad to contribute to today’s discussion on urban displacement at the #AfricanUrbanForum. Across Africa, responses are shifting, from camps to integrated settlements, and from parallel systems to national ones. Progress is visible. The priority now is scaling the transformation.

The best way to teach is teaching by doing.Our branding sessions are not only theory based but we sit in circles teach and learn from each other.Online spaces have created the biggest marketplaces for creators;Dear creators, seize your moments and sell. @HEVAFund
