"A New TransAtlantic Route: How Ama Marfo’s Airfordable Is Helping African People Take Flight"

for OkayAfrica

Each year, OkayAfrica honors a select group of African women who are overcoming the odds and driving social progress through their accomplishments as creatives and changemakers. For this year’s OkayAfrica 100 Women, Ama Marfo, the Ghanaian CEO and co-founder of the travel platform Airfordable, talks to me about why she started a company that makes travel more accessible and cost-effective, how resources like this are changing the way people of African descent travel, and what Black people’s increased and upward mobility could mean for the Diaspora.
