As South Africa prepares to host the November G20 Summit for the first time on African soil, Mandates and Megaphones kicks off by asking: can social entrepreneurs and innovators shape a more inclusive global agenda? Jeremy Maggs is joined by Dr Solange Rosa from UCT’s Bertha Centre and Luvuyo Rani of Africa Forward to explore how social innovation can move from the margins to the main stage. They unpack the risks of G20 symbolism without substance, the power of grassroots solutions, and what a truly transformative G20 could look like for Africa if we get it right.
