In a lively debate at #guardiancoffee this month we explored why so many often derogatory stereotypes about Africa persist. Who is responsible? Is it individuals, the media, or a combination of both? How damaging are these fallacies to development on the continent?
Hugh Muir was joined by panelists Sylvie Aboa-Bradwell of the Policy Centre for African Peoples; Edward Paice, director of Africa Research Institute; and Onyekachi Wambu from Afford, the African Foundation for Development.
