THE BOLD NEW NORMAL
Vision: A bold new Africa where self-actualisation and prosperity are possible for the individual because the right opportunities exist for all. It is about equity for Africans. Africa faces deep levels of global inequity. Solving for Africa is solving for the world.The premise is intentionally articulated in terms of what matters to the individual because these are the changes that should be prioritised. It is a new normal because it means mindsets have shifted and we no longer accept the status quo for Africa.
It is bold because it will require a fundamental shift in how we view ourselves and each other collectively. It is a place where each person has a real opportunity to realise their potential. It is an Africa where we are proud of what we see daily! The bold new normal Africa is food sufficient; no one goes to bed hungry. She delivers high-quality education to all children. High-quality healthcare covers everyone in a combination of traditional and western medicine. Industries are thriving and Africans prefer their own goods and services so every adult able to work is gainfully employed.
In this Africa, there are no street children. All children are happily enjoying their childhood. The disadvantaged in society receive justice, fair support and care. The societies have transparent, accountable, inclusive leaders who empathetically prioritise the needs of the people and thus set an example for all citizens to emulate. They serve with love and humility.
