Hi there
I have 2 little questions here
Here's the sentence:
The head of an American-based charity has told the BBC that the people of Niger are now experiencing a famine because of drought. The Africa director of Helen Keller International, Shawn Baker, said drought had wiped out crops and killed livestock.
1. What does "American-based" mean? is it the same as "America-based" with its headquarters in America? Or it means this charity is mainly operated by Americans?
2. Shawn Baker is director for Africa in this charity. Should it be "the African director", or remain "the Africa director"?
Thanks
