The Investor’s Three Scenarios: Containment, Recurrence or Escalation
Every investor exposed to South Africa is being asked, implicitly, to price a question no model was built for: whether the current wave of weekly anti-migrant protests will be contained, will recur in cycles, or will escalate. The instinct is to wait for clarity. The...
Botswana Launches State-Owned Explorer to Unearth Critical Minerals
Botswana is, on the conventional measure, one of the most thoroughly mapped mineral economies in Africa — and almost none of that map has been drawn. The contradiction is built into the country's success. Decades of diamond wealth concentrated the entire exploration...
Plan and Purse: SADC Ministers Adopt 2026–27 Corporate Plan and Push a Regional Development Fund in Pretoria
Regional integration in southern Africa has never failed for want of plans. It has failed, repeatedly, for want of money to execute them — ambitious frameworks signed at summits, then starved of the financing to move from communiqué to construction. The region's...
Beyond the Grid: SADC Pushes Green Hydrogen, E-Mobility and Inclusive Energy Value Chains
Connecting more households to the grid answers only half of southern Africa's energy question. The other half is what kind of energy that grid carries, who builds the industries around it, and whether the transition creates jobs at home or simply imports finished...
Wired for Power: SADC Energy Week Backs Interconnectors and Universal Access by 2030 in Victoria Falls
Southern Africa does not lack power potential; it lacks the wires, the rules and the reach to move what it generates to where it is needed. A region with world-class solar resource, large hydro endowments and growing gas finds still leaves a substantial share of its...

Blue Economy growth agenda across SADC: regional demand and access and what comes next
Ask a household in Windhoek, Maputo or Dar es Salaam whether SADC's blue economy agenda has changed anything about the fish on their plate or the beach holiday they can afford, and the honest answer, as of this week, is not yet. The 3rd Africa Blue Economy Week,...

Blue Economy growth agenda across SADC — policy and strategy logic and what comes next
Regional blocs produce declarations far more easily than they produce operational law. That is the standing contradiction in SADC's institutional history, and it is the lens through which the outcomes of the 3rd Africa Blue Economy Week, held in Luanda from 22 to...
Blue Economy growth agenda — agrifood value-chain opportunity — for regional operators
Fish is agrifood, but SADC's institutions rarely treat it that way. Fisheries governance sits with maritime and environment portfolios, agriculture ministries manage crops and livestock, and the value chains that connect a landed catch to a processed, packaged,...

Blue Economy growth agenda across SADC: the evidence and archive — and what comes next

Blue Economy growth agenda across SADC: institutional capability — and what comes next
Regional strategies live or die on the people mandated to execute them, and the 3rd Africa Blue Economy Week, held in Luanda from 22 to 25 July, put two of the most relevant institutional figures for SADC's blue economy agenda squarely in front of the region:...
Blue Economy growth agenda across SADC — capital and bankability — and what comes next
A regional bloc can declare a sector strategically important without a single lender changing a credit assessment. That is the gap the 3rd Africa Blue Economy Week, held in Luanda from 22 to 25 July, was designed to close — political endorsement on one side, bankable...
