Show Description
Senegalese singer and star of the world stage Baaba Maal is a man with a mission that extends beyond his music. This is a unique opportunity to hear Baaba Maal speaking about contemporary African society and to gain an insight into some of the most pressing issues as he sees them. He is committed to the concerns of families, young people and the future of the continent, as is reflected in his role as Youth Emissary for the United Nations’ Development Programme, about which he says:
"It strengthens my determination to work harder to contribute more to improving the living conditions of disadvantaged people of the African continent, especially young people, whose future is seriously threatened by illiteracy, poverty and HIV/AIDS. When I am talking about Africa, it is about how Africa will grow into the new millennium. This is why I really wanted to make music, so people can listen more to the music and the messages I am talking about."
