Reviews

Claiming Agency is relevant to all those who practice philanthropy on our continent, especially those intent on ensuring that people have a say in the decisions that shape their lives. Undoubtedly, the most redeeming and enduring change in the lives of people, communities and societies is what comes from within. - Akwasi Aidoo "Just as important as TrustAfrica's use of philanthropic resources to advance African agendas and agency, has been its harnessing of African intellectual and human resources to raise the profile of African experience and innovation in philanthropy for social change and justice. - Theo Sowa "A robust, confident and independent African civil society will be a principal ingredient of the Africa rising narrative and Claiming Agency is essential reading for anyone interested in the pivotal role of African philanthropy in the years ahead. - Gerry Salole
