African countries to ratify international copyright treaties

Nairobi is hosting African states at the World Intellectual Property Organisation Heads of Copyright Conference. They鈥檙e discussing ways in which African ideas can be better protected.

麻豆社鈥檚 Georgie Ndirangu chats exclusively with Sylvie Forbin, the Deputy Director General World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on the state of intellectual property in Africa.

Plus; 40 inmates have died of malnutrition at DRC Congo鈥檚 Mbanza Ngungu prison. Officials blame poor conditions in the prison, while human鈥檚 rights activists say prisoners were starved to death.

With Billions being spent to run prisons, we dive into the economics of prison finance, with Legal Aid Manager at African Prisons John Muthuri giving solutions to cutting prison costs.

Plus; who needs a paint brush or a pencil when you've got boxing gloves? We meet an artist in Senegal who makes art with almost anything and everything.

From our studios in Nairobi, Maya Hayakawa presents this edition of 麻豆社 Money daily.
