Interesting #SinoAfrica/#AfroChineseMatters framing here: rather than Chinese “investment” or “aid” (neither of which are usually accurate), it is Chinese companies that are credited with building infrastructure “for Africa”.

2022: Let breathe life - People should be bold to talk about their personal/collective/national achievements and celebrate their successes as well. Enough of the negativity.

Africa has 8 out the 20 countries spending the most to repay public debt, according to UN Trade and Development . I have to confess I was expecting more. It brings the point that Africa's economic data looks quite different when compared evenly.

I have been extremely impressed with the organizing for #ECAS2023. We talk a lot- justifiably-about how horrible Africa focused conferences outside Africa are- so wanted to give a shout out. They had visa letters, emails on childcare, local transport. Reasonable $ reg & hotel

Download a bunch of research papers. Read them to find only a few are relevant to your project. Takes even longer if English is not your first language. Or, Use SciSummary to read summaries of papers in your own language. And find out the papers you should read closely.
