Development policy in Africa: public and private perspectives

2001 CSAE Conference

 held at Keble College, Oxford and Oxford University Museum of Natural History, 29-31 March 2001

CSAE's 2001 conference was designed for academic, government and private-sector participants, and examined many of the major economic and commercial issues currently facing Africa. It provided a broad focus from different perspectives on Africa's business future, and was aimed at both potential investors in Africa needing to weigh up business opportunities whist considering first-time involvement, and seasoned Africa experts wanting to expand their knowledge.

Senior decision-makers from African governments and the business community participated, including President Festus Mogae of Botswana, whose country is one of Africa’s economic success stories.

Our highly successful 1998 conference Investing in Africa raised funds to launch the Museveni Scholarship Fund for bringing African scholars to Oxford. Proceeds from this year’s conference will be used to replenish the Fund.
