Would you support a project called "Invent for Africa"? The idea is for inventors like me to produce products.

Question

The project invent for Africa is to go round the problem with tariffs imposed by the G8. Inventors like me will come up with ideas that can be used to bring up the economy of Africa througfh technology that is cheap but can be traded in the rich countries.

Answer 1

I support the idea of helping Africa. Technology is very important both in improving living conditions and earning money through exports. There is scope for inventions meeting the special needs of Africa. One example of an inventors work for Africa is the clockwork radio http://www.enginuity.org.uk/enginuity/behind/clocside.htm

Perhaps radically new inventions like this are rare but there are many, many ways in which existing technology can be adapted or made available to help in Africa.

Answer 2

good factor. It has lots to do with "pride". They do the "we invented this" card with a view to cause them to sense extra acceptable about themeselves or to placed somebody else down. the element is they're interior of an same position as you because they did not do something about that both. It does not count although what percentage situations you try to inform those that, they wont comprehend. For some people their race is each and every thing, and they dont have any sense of individuality.

Answer 3

You'll need to change a lot of governments in Africa and then do a lot of educating. Many of the corrupt African governments DONT want their people to become richer or smarter, because then they would be more of a threat to their power....but your heart is in the right place.
