Why South Africa?
                                            South Africa - the ‘rainbow’ nation, rich in diversity and natural
                                            beauty, is in the midst of profound change.
                                            Shaking off the legacy of apartheid, South Africa is re-inventing
                                            itself.
                                            Led by a new generation of social entrepreneurs and
                                            extraordinary partnership programmes across government,
                                            business and the community, a new country is emerging.
                                            It is a country filled with a sense of hope and confidence that
                                            by working together, its people can overcome the challenges
                                            they face.
                                            South Africa will provide you with both insight and inspiration.
