Dambisa Moyo is an economist formerly with Goldman Sachs as Head of Economic Research and Strategy for Sub-Saharan Africa. She also worked at the World Bank in Washington D.C., as a co-author to its annual World Development Report. And, she is the author of the new book, Dead Aid: Why Aid is not Working and How There is a Better Way for Africa.
Dambisa, an African woman from Zambia, argues that aid to Africa has not only failed but has compounded Africa's problems. Her arguments are articulate, brazen, and smart. She has me looking at Africa through a completely different looking glass. And I love it when that happens.
Be sure to read the above article.
I just pre-ordered her book and will keep you posted!
