The metrics that move capital and shape policy across Africa — GDP forecasts, governance indexes, risk assessments — are built on assumptions designed to keep the continent on the periphery. This programme gives you the tools to dismantle them. Across 12 modules, you’ll master the analytical architecture of decolonial thought: from Epistemic Disobedience and Ubuntu as an operational framework, to the real-world mechanics of de-dollarisation, the AES Confederation, and the green division of labour debate. You’ll learn to read any policy report, security assessment, or development indicator through an African lens — and produce intelligence that reflects African realities, not Western projections.

This is a cohort-based executive programme for analysts, policy professionals, and strategic advisors who refuse to be consumers of someone else’s analysis. You’ll train through live seminars with leading African and Africanist scholars, 1:1 supervision, and real-world simulations that mirror the pressure of actual intelligence work — from modelling the impact of a stablecoin pilot in the DRC to auditing the sovereignty implications of an ICC withdrawal. By the end, you won’t just be a better analyst. You’ll be the one setting the terms of the debate.
