Magatte Wade, a Senegalese entrepreneur and one of the Forbes 20 Youngest Power Women in Africa, explains why the solution to poverty in Africa is to expand opportunities for entrepreneurship and trade. 

Magatte urges students to think with their heads as well as their hearts as she shares her personal experience with entrepreneurship and global development. The solution to poverty in Africa is not simply more foreign aid, which often hurts local African business owners, it is policy that makes doing business easier.
