Alternative Report on Africa

Alternative Report on Africa

A report for Africa by Africa. Intellectuals, activists and citizens gathered around the Alternative Report on Africa have the ambition to overthrow the sordid and economicist visions conveyed on Africa. AROA intends to be a key initiative

diversify indicators and measurement, but above will be a place where philosophical and ideological
analysis on Africa will be reversed.
