Invite A Speaker From The Team At Develop Africa To Your Event!

On a very limited basis, members of Develop Africa’s team are available for speaking engagements at special events, workshops, seminars and small group meetings / training sessions. Over the years we have acquired a unique wealth of experience through living in, working in Africa and relating with Africans from several perspectives / different dimensions. Our team of experts is based worldwide, primarily here in the United States. A limited list of these dimensions is provided in the list of topics below.

Through these speaking engagements / meetings, you will have the opportunity to hear first-hand about and benefit from our experience. You and your group / organization / school / college / company will find our perspective to be very informative and beneficial because we are experts, able to discuss issues from multiple perspectives – both as an insider and outsider.   

The topics that we can cover include the following:

  • Life in Africa
  • Non-profit administration, management and development
  • Working in Africa
  • Starting and running a business in Africa
  • Cross-cultural development and business issues
  • Volunteering in Africa    
  • Between 2 worlds: Seeing Africa from the perspective of someone from Africa and someone from the Western World.
  • Doing business in Africa
  • Attracting External Investment to an African Country
 
If you are interested in a topic not mentioned above, please let us know. We have access to a wide pool of additional experts that we can recommend.

Our enriching presence at your event, meeting or special occasion will provide first-hand information, valuable experience and authentic diversity, including the following:

  • Multimedia (videos and pictures from Africa)
  • Relevant stories and practical examples etc.
  • Question and answer session at the end
  • Africa cultural table display (by special request only)
 
Because we have a wide range of experience, we can custom deliver or modify our content for different audiences – K-12 schools, colleges, businesses etc.

  
In exchange for our expertise, preparation and time, we request a commensurate and generous donation to Develop Africa.  Travel expenses are extra and vary depending on time scheduling, incurred costs etc. To proceed, please fill out our Advanced Speaker Form

On November 20th, this movement placed over 100,000 pencils into the hands 

of children across Sierra Leone in 20 schools.

Each pencil tells a story — of hope, opportunity, and possibility. 

Education is more than lessons — it’s liberation.

Every $25 helps children write their dreams.
