The Lives, Times, & Chapters of Luminaries Making Good Happen in Africa

Reflections from Leaders and Practitioners in the Development & Social Impact Ecosystem

People forget facts, but they always remember stories. Think of Nelson Mandela’s fight for freedom in South Africa — it takes us on an emotional journey, keeps us hooked, spreads like wildfire and even inspires us to fight for our own rights. 

This booklet contains deeply analytical comprehensive insights gathered from leaders in the African social impact space (whom we refer to as Luminaries), elaborated from their appearances on the Development Dynamics’ storytelling platform, #DDwithMaqC, as hosted and executively produced by our CEO, Dr. MaqC Eric Gitau, PhD. 

It is a wonderful resource for change makers, providing them with the knowledge and motivation to continue the vital work of building a more equitable, sustainable, just, and inclusive society for Africa. Most importantly, it serves as a treasure trove of inspiration to change-makers to make a difference in their communities, thus culminating in more sustainable solutions to local challenges.
