The development of Africa is very important to me and is closely tied to my heart and identity.  I established Hesphina.com as a platform to share experiences, knowledge, ideas, views, and resources related to Africa’s development and transformation. According to the African Union vision, Africa’s development and transformation require a lot of financial, technological, human, and leadership resources. The application of these resources also has to be strategic and sequentially planned to secure an irreversible impact on the continent’s development. Some ideas and conversations are already taking place in various spaces and platforms.  Hesphina.com will focus on areas that are fundamental to placing Africa on an irreversible path to transformation and development.  These areas are governance, in all its forms; peace and security-especially human security; natural resources governance; sustainable development; institutional and capacity building; and policy development and implementation. Let us engage in robust conversations.
