Ufahamu Africa is a podcast about life and politics on the African continent, cohosted by Rachel Beatty Riedl. A new episode of Ufahamu Africa is available each Saturday wherever you listen to podcasts, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, and SoundCloud.

“Ufahamu” is a Kiswahili word that translates to “understanding” or “consciousness” in English. Every Saturday, a new episode seeks to expand collective understanding of Africa through in-depth interviews with diverse thinkers and innovators who are deeply ingrained in the life, culture, and politics of the continent. Weekly episodes also feature news highlights and overviews of what Rachel and Kim are reading and learning.
