30 August 2006

Wednesday 30 August 2006 20:00-20:45 (Radio 4 FM)

Debate series in which the advocate of a controversial thesis faces a panel of heckling critics.

Aid and debt relief are sources of problems rather than salvation for Africa, argues Andrew Mwenda, a Ugandan broadcaster and journalist. Andrew tries to win over an audience at the Royal Geographical Society in London.

His challengers include representatives of the charities Oxfam and ActionAid, Prof Adrian Wood of Oxford University and the international development minister Gareth Thomas. BBC Economics Editor Evan Davis is the referee.
