THE 7TH ANNUAL LOCAL GOVERNANCE CONFERENCE

***** A  Democracy Development Programme  EVENT *****
24 - 26 APRIL 2012
SOUTHERN SUN ELANGENI - DURBAN - SOUTH AFRICA
Strengthening Local Economic Development for the Second Decade of Democracy in South Africa
Whilst South Africa has an impressive range of laws, policies and funding mechanisms for promoting LED, the results in terms of output and successes have been mixed and limited. The current global recession and the increased levels of poverty in the country make it critical that sustainable local economic development becomes a key concern on every municipal agenda.
This conference aims to deal with the nuts and bolts of LED ranging from procurement to high level policy decisions and brings together practitioners, officials, entrepreneurs and civil society institutions. It is a conference not to be missed.

"MADE IN AFRICA - FOR AFRICA"

THE FOUNDATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AFRICA
is a private, 'not-for-profit', non-membership, organisation actively serving Africa by promoting processes conducive to sustainable development
......throughout Africa - with the emphasis on sustainability!
This organisation is currently rated as one of the most proactive Sustainable Business Development Organisations in Africa!
Serving Africa since 1999.

We are actively involved with promoting the
AFRICAN RENEWAL PROGRAMME

However -
We firmly believe that sustainable development is a process that must start from within - Africa needs to "partner" with herself first!
We also prefer the phrase: "Lets create wealth" rather than "Lets alleviate poverty"
Our initiatives include enabler 'showcasing'; networking opportunities; business opportunities; investment opportunities; promotion of special projects; dissemination of business information; joint venture initiatives and a range of value added services - all to serve

AFRICA!

We facilitate processes, including networking sessions that would lead to sustainable development, hence our motto:
"Nothing is as ‘powerful’ as the Human Network"

"Sustainable Development is the action and/or act of bringing people and/or processes into position for the effective use in the support and/or delivery of efforts, conducts and the cause!"
