Jasper Gentry
MSc Student 2024-25
Jasper graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a bachelor’s degree in politics. In his dissertation, Jasper focussed on how Africa’s global media image is evolving with the growing presence of African social media users, an idea he looks to further develop more substantively in his MSc dissertation.
Professionally, Jasper has worked with a multitude of initiatives and charities on the continent, namely with the Initiative for African Trade and Prosperity (IATP) (2022 - 2023) and Sandblast (2023 - 2024), where he served as its chief media manager.
