Southern African Events of International Significance – 2011

Abstract

Although it has been said that Africa is a slumbering giant slowly waking from a deep sleep as illustrated by increased growth rates in countries (unfortunately excluding South Africa which has shown a decline in financial growth), the reality is that as far as the African continent is concerned, a ‘marginalisation’ in the availability of information from certain countries is evident when trawling through various information sites in search of relevant information, and finding virtually nothing on the countries under review.
