In her TEDxChange talk, Theo Sowa talks about African voices and representation in conversations of international health and poverty issues.
Theo argues that if we truly want to see progress in Africa and across borders, we need to invite the millions of African women who are leading change to the table--not just the few notable African women leaders who are asked time and again.

Fabulous presentation.. yes.. absolutely spot on if we are to see progress in Africa we need to address this voicelessness of women... and this is not just an African phenomenon... this applies to women in countries all around the world. Well done Theo.
