Welcome to the fourth episode of our podcast series on the Democratic Republic of Congo, the entirety of which has been researched, produced and edited by TCD Student Maria Salto Galdon. In this week's podcast, we start a new section of the series that covers economics, international trade, and supply chains. For this episode, we're delighted to be joined by Dr. David Nyaluke, UCD Proudly Made in Africa Fellow in Business and Development at the UCD School of Business.  David gives us incredibly valuable insight into one of the biggest issues facing modern day Africa - its international trade system. Join us as we journey  through its unfair history and current day situation .
