Africa Rising: Framing the continent's politics, trade and growth

What role did social media really play in the Arab Spring? Whilst some might say Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) and social media is not so new anymore and that the media should drop the hype about it; we at Highway Africa beg to differ. Those of us rooted in areas like Grahamstown- where the socio-political stance of its diaspora is so diverse and highly unequal and  a place where youth do not own mobile phones or if lucky enough share a WAP-enabled household cell phone- urge for…See More
