Pascale Harter presents two reports from Africa in today's programme: one from Kenya and the other from Algeria. A revolutionary plan for the future of a continent? Gabriel Gatehouse meets a man in Kenya with a scheme aimed at moving economies towards financial independence and away from reliance on aid. Chloe Arnold bids farewell to Algeria and looks back at her time in a country full of contradictions, mired in a violent history but a place desperate to leave the past behind.
