Don’t Lose a Good Crisis: How Did Asia Make Use of its National Crises to Enable Reform?


Listen Later

What is a national crisis and how can it be turned into an opportunity?

This episode looks at how Africa’s leaders have to adopt a similar sense of urgency as Asia does, if they are to ensure that their countries not only survive but prosper in the face of the huge demographic changes they face. Including interviews with former Prime Minister of Ethiopia and co-author Hailemariam Desalegn, and Zimbabwe's opposition leaders Nelson Chamisa and Tendai Biti, who know more than most about crisis, we explore how what might appear a disaster can be an opportunity for Africa's development.
