Sputnik Africa

A delegate to the forum from Zimbabwe also shared her thoughts on solving the language barrier between Russia and her country. Zimbabwean youth could begin to learn Russian at the elementary school level in order to "learn about [each other's] culture," according to Sheri Nyakudya, Town Secretary for Mvurwi Town Council, Zimbabwe.This view is supported by Dr. Nwana Sama Bernard, Chairman of Cameroon’s Upper Nun Valley Development Authority (UNVDA), who believes Cameroonian youth "should be educated in Russia" in order for them to become "entrepreneurs" who can "be able to produce themselves."To hear what else the key speakers had to say, as well as insights on Russia-Africa cooperation, check out the entire episode of the AfroVerdict podcast, brought to you by Sputnik Africa.In addition to the website, you can also catch our episodes on Telegram.► You can also listen to our podcast on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, Pocket Casts, Deezer, Podcast Addict and Afripods.► Check out all the episodes of AfroVerdict.

In continuation of the first episode of highlights from the Sixth International Municipal BRICS Forum hosted by Moscow, AfroVerdict host brings you more interviews with keynote speakers from the event to explore Africa's position on the main issues discussed at the forum.
The episode kicks off with an interview featuring Dr. Nonkululeko Mantula, a media expert, businesswoman, and Head of Communications for the BRICS Women's Business Alliance, who spoke about the role of culture for African youth and cross-cultural barriers, such as language.
She also shared a success story of a woman entrepreneur who managed to successfully implement her energy project in South Africa with the help of the BRICS Women's Business Alliance.
A delegate to the forum from Zimbabwe also shared her thoughts on solving the language barrier between Russia and her country. Zimbabwean youth could begin to learn Russian at the elementary school level in order to "learn about [each other's] culture," according to Sheri Nyakudya, Town Secretary for Mvurwi Town Council, Zimbabwe.
"At the end of the day, you're bound to learn the languages. So if we have these cultural exchange programs, they can assist us to understand each other's language faster," Nyakudya says.
This view is supported by Dr. Nwana Sama Bernard, Chairman of Cameroon’s Upper Nun Valley Development Authority (UNVDA), who believes Cameroonian youth "should be educated in Russia" in order for them to become "entrepreneurs" who can "be able to produce themselves."
"The Russian method of training, we count on that. We already see that yielding fruit[...]. We are encouraging the younger ones to follow up and to get a good education and good training from Russia that will make them become better Cameroonians tomorrow," Dr. Bernard explains.
