Calls for debt relief to be awarded to African countries have become "de rigueur" in non-governmental circles and a good many news publications. But is it sufficiently important to crowd out sports talk amongst people riding mini-bus taxis on their way to work? That's exactly what 'Get on Board' is discovering at the moment. Under this initiative, a group of activists aboard a 14-seater bus is traveling around Africa, collecting the views of rural and urban populations on Africa's debt problem, international aid and trade rules.'Get on Board' forms part of a campaign by the 'Global Call to Action Against Poverty' (GCAP).
