Africa Calling
There has been much written in the British press about Live 8 and the fact that Little or NO African artists are represented at the concerts at Hyde Park, Paris, Berlin, Rome and Philadelphia. There is obviously a strong African cast at the concert in South Africa as you would expect. The Eden concert in Cornwall, UK, - “AFRICA CALLING” - will give an authentic undiluted African contribution to “Make Poverty History”, Live 8 and the Global call to Action against Poverty by the Africans, about Africa for the world.

AFRICA CALLING
There has been much written in the British press about Live 8 and the fact that Little or NO African artists are represented at the concerts at Hyde Park, Paris, Berlin, Rome and Philadelphia. There is obviously a strong African cast at the concert in South Africa as you would expect.
Eden’s concert “AFRICA CALLING” will give an authentic undiluted African contribution to “Make Poverty History”, Live 8 and the Global call to Action against Poverty by the Africans, about Africa for the world. This is a good and important thing because so often the VOICE of AFRICA is lost to those who make more noise.
Africa is sending a clear message to the leaders of the world’s richest countries that 2005 is a year when they strike a meaningful blow against poverty in Africa. It is the year that rich countries take a decisive action to increase their aid budgets, reform the rules of global trade and finally end African debt burden that is destroying the livelihoods of millions of Africans
The aim of having the African concert is to send a clear message to the G8 leadership that Africa will no longer silently wait for others to fight for it.
