Olivia Scott Kamkwamba

My research on aid to education in Africa is motivated by a love for community building through shared dialogues.

I challenge organizations and individuals to think about history, their place in it, and how they can participate in envisioning, guiding, and controlling our collective futures.

I write about educational inequalities in aid through a performance studies lens in Africa and the United States.

I create spaces for conversation with students and scholars.

I’m a certified UAS pilot working to incorporate GIS in development practices.
