| Summary |
The Southern African Development Community (SADC), which constitutes 15 member states, plays a key role in addressing Southern Africa's peacebuilding challenges. Adopting the approach that peace and security are essential prerequisites for development for Southern Africa's 250 million inhabitants, and that building peace requires a holistic approach, the CCR policy seminar critically assessed the broad institutional, security, and governance challenges that have confronted SADC in the two decades since it took its present form in 1992 -- particularly in the four priority areas of governance, military security, food security, and HIV/AIDS. Other topics discussed at the meeting included: regional integration; the Southern African Customs Union (SACU) and prospects for a free trade area in Southern Africa; the impact of climate change on the sub-region; xenophobia and issues of migration; and the role of external actors in Southern Africa such as China, the United States, the European Union, and the United Nations |
