Goals
You do not want to miss out on this thought provoking webinar, as youth from all over the African continent and from around the world seek to address the following pertinent issues that affect our beloved African continent:

• Identify the current foreign aid status in African nations and the different types of aid in place. Then, we will have a discussion on how the problem of aid manifests itself.
• Discuss how these forms of aid affect local businesses and inhibit the creation of new ones, as well as the effects aid has on other fields.
• Engage in a discussion on when aid is needed due to dire crises and when aid has to give way to local sectors after the peak of the crisis.
• Work on possible solutions directed toward cutting rates of foreign aid dependence and promoting the local sectors.
