The Mawazo Ideas Podcast
Giving a Public Platform to the Big Ideas that are Changing Our World
The Mawazo Ideas Podcast gives a public platform to Africans who are making an impact with their Big Ideas. In four seasons of the podcast, we have featured interviews with African experts in science and policy. We discuss their science journeys, climate change mitigation and conservation, and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the African continent. New episodes are available on Thursdays.
