Critical Issues Facing South Africa Now & In the Future

Where is South Africa’s political economy going in the future? Independent Political Analyst Daniel Silke will challenge your conference with a future-oriented and broad-ranging lecture offering the latest analysis of major economic & political trends facing the country. This may include (inter-alia) the state of the economy, social challenges, labour & skills shortages, prospects for foreign investment, infrastructure development, regional & foreign policy, the role and efficiency of the State, Nationalization, the quality of democracy, unemployment and the complexities of the political debate going forward.  In particular, the Keynote will address the question of how economic policy debates around creating positive growth are likely to define and potentially divide the ANC in the next decade. Marrying the key economic debates of the modern South African era with Silke’s canny insights into the rough and tumble of the domestic political process make this one topical presentation you will not want to miss!

This is one of the few South African keynotes to offer both an economic & political overview of the current and future prospects for the country and represents excellent value for any conference.

“An informative, energetic and entertaining presentation. It was indeed the energy required to begin day two and set the tone for the rest of the day.”
