Every Monday, sharp analysis at the intersection
of geopolitics and Africa's travel future.
Africa's tourism industry has always been shaped by forces beyond its borders — conflicts, currencies, climate, and corridors of power. For 13 years I have watched decisions get made without the intelligence to make them well. The Corridor exists to change that. Every Monday, I connect the dots so Africa's leaders can act with clarity, confidence, and conviction.
Every week, something happens in the world that changes where people travel. A conflict erupts. A currency shifts. A visa policy changes. Africa's policymakers and industry leaders need to understand what it means — fast, clearly, and without wading through academic journals.
That is what The Corridor exists to do.
The Israel-Iran conflict has sent shockwaves through Middle Eastern tourism — grounding flights, emptying hotels, and leaving millions of travelers scrambling to rethink their plans. Africa — vibrant, safe, and extraordinary — is the world's most compelling alternative. But the window will not stay open forever.
