Komla Dumor's point about drawing on African experts brings attention to the importance of giving voice and agency to Africans in shaping and sharing their own narratives. By centering Africans telling their own stories, we foster inclusivity, respect, and a more accurate representation of the African continent and its diverse peoples.
Incorporating African voices not only enhances the authenticity and richness of the work but also promotes inclusivity, respect, and a more comprehensive understanding of the world. It encourages dialogue, mutual learning, and the celebration of diverse voices and experiences.
