cooperation becomes the scene of a horrible tragedy. arab terrorists, armed with sub machine guns, went to the headquarters of the israeli team and immediately killed one man. and that is really the last one was so in life, i wars fears realized tonight. they're all gone. how i witnesses experienced the terrible events and this, the world should not forget the long shuttle to 972 olympic massacre starts september 3rd on d. w. ah. hi there. welcome to the 7 to 7 percent the showed are let's african majority they youth talk about things that are important to us. i am michael o t your host for to day. so, yes, what's coming up? do you have the right opportunities to compete for the rest of the world?

that's what we asked young people in several years. in gunners capital, our crime, we meet a young innovator sometime in on the bible revolution. and in my city, we explore brune. these economic capital would you were up with me. let's start off today's sure with a talk around the continent. to be successful at anything. you need mentors. some one who has done it before and continued a rooks in the next story i been, you escalator, magician and a tick tock. queen. they tell us who inspires them. wow. i mean, i really look up to ago, you know, if you had a group called pulling cello, i think it's because of their hydroxy puts towards getting a lions and how she asked and how she is able to evolve into different characters.

that is amazing. and she has contributed into the person that i am today. i try to follow him by doing what she does, concentrating way and being may my scripts and also researching on my carter before i cause that or rather being evolving into my car a fall, cooper. dane, i'm old crazy in you're. busy close to the leg and like i did before, the do an m m m, i do show i gear world. so i think my them to study being c o e, they're not fully direct dial along with what the main distinction you wholesale i am and you can

easily unique lassie small to do so at the moment i'll say a mouthful. this is an american skate border, and i think o, i inspired me is because the regular skateboarding valerie like is down the scale. i, he normally, your escape. he normally gets all his checks and i like put that in to ask a body where like murder and get a check. i like a non just quit on karen trying. i want to get the checks or ever credit will ever stop trying my trick. well cross to you nelson, i can't begin to attempt any of those tricks, but it's great to see all of you guys do what you love and hopefully more people

get to live your best lives. because we are in a global world where you and i have to compete with young people, our age in germany and china, but do you feel prepared to compete? that is what my colleague edward kamani asked young sewell unions in this we st. pete. yes. what is say ah, hello and welcome to the 77 percent were here at the prince of wales school in free town, the capital of cyril yawn. and in this country, 8 out of every 10 people is under the age of 35. i had to look that number up again because it's unbelievable. 80 percent of the population are within the 77 percent. but the question we want to ask today is, is the government doing enough to not just empower this youth but also make them competitive globally? and i want to begin with harder because you've had the opportunity to not to study abroad,

but also have an enterprise here. so perhaps you can give me based on your experience . do you think that the youth in this country have been enabled or empowered enough to basically be part of the global community? well, as of a few months ago, there were only 3 disciplines in sierra leone when you go to high school. so there's the arts, the commercial and science. so i ended up in the science because every smart person is supposed to be a doctor. and most of the things were, were taught in school when not really practical, it was all fury. and i really struggle with this when i got a scholarship to study in norway in 2015 i to classes like chemistry and biology. and in all the experiments which were very practical, i was really struggling and my grades were not reflecting on the education system that i received in sierra leone. let me go to k is daniel, because we're talking about some of the miss that come about, particularly after graduating say university. and i know finances was one of the key ones for you. is it normal, or is it

a normal occurrence for young people yet to stop their tertiary education because they simply no bus or is no scoffing. i got malcolm in 2016. what the diesel boat finish, only for me to follow my nutrition. so i decided to move would m santo wishes to only telecom nutrition as assist agent for me just to support medication and i was working go for bus success. they're just so booked. oh, i think there's no with all right, so. ringback like to doctor come on here for a 2nd because she is the director of research if i'm not mistaken, of for delivery and delivery and the ministry of finance. so it sounds to me like, you know, the government has a great initiative in place, which is free primary education rather free education for all. but then after that, what next? the thing is. yes. 4 years we've been focused on traditional education. that's the reality. but now we transition in unseen the awareness and how people approach

technical vocational training and the need find happiness and how he doesn't need to be just one sector or you have in one calling to serve. you can serve in multiple ways, you, you can be a doctor and still be an entrepreneur, you can been entropy no and an advocate. so having that platform or crating, those systems in which of them are these, they thought and idea. no, they log in, create that is just that we need to scale up and find ways to accelerate the creation of those spaces. all right. do you think that the quality of education, what is being taught the back here is enough. oh, is there one thing? i am personally not a free kind of person. and that's my personal opinion because you don't think education should be faithful, should be accessible and affordable for everyone. because when it's free right now, only to poor people can send your kids to like goldman school. i want to be involved in sierra leone, where the local trader and a minister can send your kids to the same school because they can afford it. i was part of the for education system. when i was in secondary school,

my school fees were 60000 loans. i got it every year was reimbursed me for $45000.00 loans. but my textbooks were up to a 1000000 and that my parents found, had to, you know, afoot, like daniel, said he, he couldn't get to college. and honestly, it's sad because he was smart and he is still smart. but how many of daniels are out there? how many of daniels don't have his privilege to be on tv? let me come back to your doctor because we're hearing that there is a disconnect. i mean, surely, the policy that you're creating behind closed doors sound wonderful, but the implementation 0. so if you look back at houser, you and as developed over the years, you knew the growth has been in stop, stop, stop, install. what is the thing is when you implement new policies, impact fix a while to shoot. so that's why we look at intermediate outcomes for now, that number of farmers benefits a number of children in school. we know that the investments need to continue to need to be consistent. the need to be owned by every put everybody we are now

looking towards how we can not be left behind in the for, to direct industrial revolution. because we've talked about the 4th industrial revolution. i must come to this because it surprised me dramatically that electricity penetration in this country is just above 20 percent. how can we be talking about robotics and big data when people don't even have access to power? so that's the thing. and when we, if we try to perceive it in the lines of this comes before the other, that's where we miss it that thinks that we can do together. and we can do that in more efficient ways. let's as the person who's already doing it for her, we're hearing here that it's possible to both be waiting for power supply and still innovate. is this true or is the doctor dreaming? as you said, a literally or just above 20 percent access to an edgy. we have wind mills that we locally fabricated. all we need is one to scale of decisions, and it replicates from our communities. we develop hydro generator just from scrubs . all these solutions can solve our energy crisis. for my own initiative, i've been able to empowered over through only

a young people in my defend initiative, wish to energy initiatives on power over 20 communities using wished to energy. sometimes we wish we are stuck in areas we out. we have our ideas and then we'll see, does this ideas have potential to really grow our way from it wound the community that we've started. it's but it's talk because there are no supports really um skill up to the next stage and he was secure funding. okay. so dr. come, i want to come back to you because we've had a lot of things that might make one to press, you know, a electricity not available. internet penetration, very low education, quality, questionable. but it's not all gloom and doom. is it no slower? yeah. so 1st of all, our, to the, asked the young person in government, i wear that hat because i think it's my responsibility as a citizen, to me, to be in space. this way i can drive pacific positive change. so in my role as director of research and delivery, that's what i do. i'm on the take research and advice, but what we need to do is we need to revisit is the way we formed our development.

cuz we're always talking about m financial inclusion, getting entropy, no sheep. now we of course we in putting money into incubators and accelerators, but then we're what we're development partners also. and it always seems to be, it's more about a numbers game around number of beneficiaries than impacts hydro. we started with you. i'd like to conclude with you. what do you think lies ahead for the use of this country? early i asked if they're able to compete globally. i wonder if your answer has changed. i think after hearing list, i strongly stand on my answer. we still have a huge percentage of the, of the population live in, you know, below the poverty line. don't, don't tell me i need to compete in the global market when i can't even compete with countries like kenya and gonna look at what ronda is doing. senegal in 2035, you're going to have so much energy from sola. and here we are, like looking at countries like the u. s. in england. we have to stop that. let's

compete locally, instead of like, globally. and i think one step at a time what local solution. yeah, we can get there one step at a time. i like that and i think that's also a great place for us to end. at the beginning of this debate, i asked if the serial union use a set up to compete globally. and i think the answer we've had repeated over and over again is in good time. thank you for watching a thanks. it is for that debate. now ha, is, are 2 bar raises a somewhat controversial point. should several unions focused on competing locally or us. some of you would say we live in a global world and so we should compare ourselves to the rest of the world. and if you want to watch a longer version of this debate, go on to our youtube channel. and also on our facebook page, we asked many of you, if you feel you are ready to compete with arrest of the weld on. yes,

what solomon younger who lives here in berlin says, are we absolutely not prepared in other parts of the world? they are devastated because they have no young population to keep your social systems running. but in africa are leaders can't make use of the youth. that's food for thought and po, new one from more movie library i says, west africa is still developing. infrastructure on installation and development will need every was full participation to achieve the result set, living at all in the hands of the god when to take another century to wet. there should be no more excuses. human beings should start fixed india every day, but positions. so you are talking about pess, my responsibility, and people taking charge. and one final, one from jim's past cost less in long whim allow, he says, here in malawi, a retirement age has been increased from 65 to 70. when do young people get

employment? it's a big question, i feel what you're saying, and let us also know what you think about this particular topic. you can shed was dos with us on our facebook page, d, w, africa. now across the continent, young people are ready to contribute, but often there isn't any opportunity for them. in this song, our resident rop akela east talks about the lack of chances for many african youth . oh they know what needed was an opportunity. ah. yeah. with the you've got what it takes to make the place a better place. we think good crops demanding for credibly. for heaven's sake, give us a chance to elevate, give us the space, and they help in hand to live unemployed without jobs,

or they called us lazy. it will be posted in industries. they bought us crazy, promised me, but a big we spend more than we own, so we always in depth. we worked hard to game. he had a pain in this. and from hand to mouth goes every grade the weekend, they drive hot boss, retake them or drops locally and hot jobs. life is hot. i live raymond on the rise, a national crisis and it makes me wonder why the system is like this low wages moving, climbing the prices keep hiking in the government don't care. they live in a slight case thinking to so and please cater they wouldn't know why this is a safety cause this boy more problems and replaces they can take it no more. so replacing the so really this one to take from them. oh really? it was just basically a, you know, they don't feel like garcia, mom a wake up and then i would need it was an opportunity. thanks. killer is for dad banging song. sometimes it's not enough to wait for the

opportunity. you have to shake some tables, shutter some glass ceilings and snatch it. that is what a women be about to meet are doing. in gambia, many people still look a feeble mechanics with scorn. but i did not stop eda and for to matter. they set up the, our own auto mechanics shop where they fixed cas while 10 in social norms on the head. the center of sarah condo hosts a very unique place. the only garage owned and run by women in the gambia photo, marta, jamie and eda fall have joint forces to defy stereotypes and gain a foothold in the auto industry. however, they 1st had to convince their loved ones about their passion. my biggest challenge was the in dealing with my mom to convince my mom that hi it's ok. this is my passion. these when i believe in this is what i want to do. so forget about the

stereotypes. look as a mom, i'm a woman is a car, a child that i have to make as in many other countries, men dominate the car industry. women are supposed to stick to traditional duties. for most, this includes unpaid work and agriculture sector and they rarely own property. but after studying mechanical engineering for to matter, opened her own garage or more than 5 provider is the organ is used on that. that is set to organize all the female that i in automotive industry. it has to come together. we find very difficult to be accept in the industry. and then i said little also have is some sample that little female got it apart from repairing and maintaining several cars per day for too much on teach young girls the basics of mechanics. the training program is designed to empower goals and reduce the gender gap in vocational education. sign up, who has joined them. i said that they feel it because i love

it. they see what, ma'am? new mexico. and i see i know the fact. that's why i joined the sweeney to show them that what men can do a man can do it even more despite the patriarchal mindset and can be in society, many people are starting to overcome prejudices and not hesitate to entrust their cause to the women. many of these kind of job will be assigned to man in sort of woman. so not does it does one of the reason not move me to come here because i was impressed. i was impressed when i hear that, you know, it was, you know, gone by ladies. notwithstanding the financial obstacles and gender discrimination, but too much and have become an example of women's resilience by following their dreams and empowering their peers to fight for equal opportunities. that thing you should remember when you watch this story is that no job is tended. the only thing

that he should consider is whether or not a person mom, a woman, can get the job done. unless i agree to do this, you know, a young person who is running a business. so let's make it a point to patronize them. so that become all grew together. for our next report, we had to our cra, ganesh, capital lawrence, a j bill's electric by extra east transportation. and at the time when full price is shooting through the roof, is innovation is 7 pockets. and the environment in gone is capital occur getting from a t b can be a nightmare. it's normally hot in distances are far. and if you do drive or take public transport, you stuck in traffic rush hour can triple travel times. so canadians are increasingly switching to 2 wheels. lawrence, a, j is a pro cyclist and has been building his own e bikes for years with a twist. what is 1st serve on my back?

his 1st i use hours. acura del uncle, butters. yeah. then secondly, our by law qualitative offers, then we are very strong in light of room is very strong on that is times when i said that are going on is by one of the young. i think it was like living here soon, and as of right in on this with this in on there was a videos. so wanted to cruise for myself to and from then the knows we're progressing through me this. iraq, by the 26 year old is self taught. he what is really to do tauriel almost every day and tinkers with his iep like lauren's orders, the remaining part through the internet. meanwhile, de la russell meant so south e bikes from china. but those suffer performance issues the battery that came with

it and shelly, wearing stud rubble. so when it came reading the should, this was you of pain. you had a loo, or lot of complaint from customers for lawrence to. it's not just about the joy of writing, but also traveling cheaply and quickly, especially as fuel prices rise. his e bikes can cover up to 130 kilometers per charge. i wasn't because the distance out with are good to like, very far. so i thought i needed a mortal my then as time went on, i told him, oh my situation so he can do something i was so far, lawrence has sold 7 of his e bikes, but he's looking to supercharged his iep. i dream with as someone who grew up in that cra,

i know how much fumes people have to endure on their way to the office. and that's why i think that this innovation is going to make a big difference. and so i'll be keeping an eye on lawrence and after whistle around on the bike, it's time to cool down. and what better place to do that done in east africa when it's rolling hills and beautiful sunsets? specifically, let's go to pigeon poorer. the former capital city of bronte has had its fair share of political up evil. but peace asked finally returned. i am a local connect who's going to show us around what's up mackenzie. 2 i, what's up with the guy? my name is more now, was that kelly is that also known as mo, kinsey? amberin jan. i'm a senior and i live in huge them who rad that economy. capital city of randi,
