We sit back, take it easy, look away. Ignoring the demise of the African continent and its people.

The current state of Africa south of the Sahara is serious that no longer can we approach the problems and the people with the same old methods, with the same used ideas ... in brief, with the same old paradigms. The sheer scale of the crisis, the extent of the failure, and the high cost in human lives are such that it would not be wise not to question our traditional and current approaches to Africa.
