What this publication is about

1914 Reader is a space where we examine Nigeria and Africa's most pressing challenges through the lens of global change. Through essays, podcasts, and weekly news analysis, we explore how economic shifts, technological disruption, and geopolitical trends shape the continent's trajectory.

Our goal is simple: to read widely, think deeply, and share insights that matter for Africa's present and future.

We won't clog up in your inbox so if you sign up for our newsletter, you will get only one email from us a week with a roundup of links and short commentary.

We hope can make all of this worth your time

Tobi Lawson and Feyi Fawehinmi
