You voiced your frustrations with the systems of governance in Africa and we listened. Our policy engagement will be active and diligent to pressing issues, our policy briefs will be backed by rigorous research, and our speaker series will amplify African voices locally, regionally and international. This is our pledge in driving decision-making and public debate on Africa’s most urgent governance issues. With each publication, ASG will contribute to a deeper, evidence-based understanding of Africa’s development challenges. Through our speaking events, both internal and external, we will build oratory skills in all our students. If you were a keynote at an ASG policy event, what would your speech be about?
