Abstract
The book “African Philanthropy: Philanthropic Responses to COVID-19 and Development Goals in Africa” challenges the view of African nations as merely aid recipients, showcasing the continent’s active role in philanthropy both during crises and in stable times. It delves into the operational challenges faced, highlights trends in collaboration, and assesses the impact of African philanthropy on achieving developmental goals. Furthermore, it calls for enhanced partnerships between African philanthropic entities and multilateral institutions.
