How can Africans find solutions to Africa's problems? Conservation biologist Kevin Njabo tells his personal story of how he nearly became part of the group of African scientists who seek an education abroad and never return — and why he's now building a permanent base on the continent to nurture and support local talent. “I'm not coming back alone. I'm bringing with me Western scientists, entrepreneurs and students,“ Njabo says. “When that happens, Africa will be on the way to solving Africa's problems.“ Check out more TED Talks: The TED Talks channel features the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).
