Promoting a better image of Africa

How can young people contribute to promote a good image of Africa? Most of people out of the continent have a wrong and bad image of the continent. Africa is perceived as a continent of hunger, poverty, wars, corruption . This image is an obstacle to the foreign investments ,as well as tourism development , which are crucial to the economic development. We know that Africa is not only that bad picture.Africa is also plenty of human ressources,virgin economies. I wish we can discuss on how we ,young people or the governments can sell a more beautiful, the other side of Africa, the real image of Africa outside the continent.
