Does a 'Brain Drain' Threaten Africa's Development?

Host Vincent Makori explored those questions with his guests: Ndioro Ndiaye, Deputy Director General of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Geneva, Switzerland; Karim Morsli, Chief Executive Officer for the Washington, D.C.-based outsourcing company Rising Data Solutions; Dr. Abdul Karim Bangura, Professor of International Relations at American University in Washington, D.C.; and Caglar Ozden, Research Economist at The World Bank.
