EDUCATED AFRICANA: EP.9 Trades vs. Corporate
How do you define success? What do you want for your children? Do you believe that there is a strict hierarchy of trades and corporate jobs? We here this over and over again of how back in the day our parents wanted us to have the top three jobs; lawyer, doctor, or engineer. But we all soon learned not everyone can be in those professions. We need people across the board. So why is there such a stigma against blue collar jobs?
Zenith Malawo and Gift Mbewe have an exciting discussion about the pros and cons of both trades vs. corporate career paths. They also discuss the prevailing perceptions.
Let's talk about it.

The world has advanced so quickly. However, education in Africa is not keeping up at the same pace. Be it the curriculum content, teaching methods or stakeholders commitment, there is an urgency to adapt to the times. Furthermore, conversations around Education have only focused on the traditional models. Until now.
The Educated Africana, hosted by Tebogo Kangote III brings together diverse voices to have in depth discussions about Education in Africa.

EDUCATED AFRICANA: EP.8 - Teacher Burnout
A lot of parents expect teachers to perform miracles with their child. To a large extent teachers do have a great impact in moulding young minds, but at what cost?
Sekai Chitaukire and Ancietos Mwansa talk about Teacher Burnout from the pressures of being a teacher, the response of administration and parents to their requests and self advocacy for better working conditions. Teachers are humans too.
Let's talk about it.

EDUCATED AFRICANA: Ep.7 - Exceptional Children
There are those amongst are who are exceptional. They process the world differently and do things according to their own rhythm. Elizabeth Mwansa, Florence Chawelwa and Emily Chinokoro take us into the world of these children, from their potential, to the struggles, to the experiences of their caregivers and parents.
In a world where free education is a basic right for every child, these exceptional children are often excluded.
Let's talk about it.

THE EDUCATED AFRICANA: Ep.6 - Nutrition
Makheni Zonneveld and Tokozile N. Ngwenya are passionate about children's nutrition. Food affects the quality of one's day from your energy levels to your ability to concentrate, or get adequate rest. We have to question, is what we feed our children harming them or benefiting them.
We live in communities where fast food has been made a status symbol of success. Where stores sell us conveniently packaged foods for the busy parent. Where schools rarely offer guidance on what foods would be appropriate or nutritious. And more often than not as parents we are doing what we can with the knowledge that we have which may not be much. How can we do better?
Let's talk about it.

THE EDUCATED AFRICANA: Ep.5 - Period Poverty
Namutula Sindila, Wendy Musonda and Agness Tambulukani are formidable warriors in the fight against period poverty.
Period poverty is a lack of access to menstrual products, education, hygiene facilities, waste management, or a combination of these. It affects an estimated 500 million people worldwide and has a direct effect on how many women do not have access to education for an accumulative 3 months out of the year due to their period.
Think about it a girl misses 3 months of school every year and yet is expected to perform at the same level as a boy.
We have to talk about how to eradicate period poverty.

Customer Reviews
Insightful, charming, and inspiring!
Chulu's enthusiam and charming personilty makes the podcasts a joy to listen to!
Greetings From Across The Water
So much knowledge and inspiration from my African Sisters! Greetings and continued blessings!
Smart and inspiring conversations
It’s great to listen to these honest and smart conversations that celebrate and explore what we can learn from our past, how to deal with the present and how to confront the future. The lens is an experience of an African woman but lessons are most certainly universal.
