“The consequences are felt right now across the country and even across Africa.”
Spotlight on Africa reached out to three experts involved in rethinking the future of aid, including CFK Africa Executive Director Jeffrey Okoro.
“There are a lot of good things happening around decolonizing aid and localization, and that is something that CFK Africa is engaging in.”
“The fear is real” said CFK Africa Executive Director, Jeffrey Okoro.
The health workers advocate for localisation, local financing and even “changing the look around all the challenges that exist in these communities”, Okoro told RFI.
“There is a lot of misunderstanding on what aid or development work is. To me, it restores dignity, brings out the best in humanity, and lessens suffering, and I think that is missed from a lot of the current news stories on the pullback of aid,” said CFK Africa Executive Director Jeffrey Okoro.
