SADC / ICGLR Joint Summit, 03 - 04 November 2013, Pretoria, South Africa
The South African Government will host the Joint SADC – ICGLR Summit from 03 – 04 November 2013 at the OR Tambo Building, Pretoria. The Summit will be preceded by the Ministerial and Senior Officials consultations on 03 and 04 November respectively.
The Summit is expected to consider a report of the Report of Joint Ministerial Meeting on the Implementation of the Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework for the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Region.
South Africa continues to play a significant role in peace and security activities at regional and continental levels in operations, strategically and financially. This is based on the belief that regional peace, security and stability are key determinants for socio-economic development and a critical factor for regional integration.
Regional integration is critical if we are to expand intra-Africa trade. This is in line with the vision as well as the implementation of an African Agenda that will undoubtedly help us realise our central objective of the regeneration of Africa.
