The National Department of Environmental Affairs
and Tourism will be hosting a three-day investment conference on behalf of the
nine Southern African Development Community countries (Angola, Botswana,
Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe) at
Johannesburg's Sandton Sun Hotel from October 20 to 22 2008.
The aim of the conference is to promote and develop
southern Africa's transfrontier conservation
areas so that other regions benefit from the 2010 Fifa Soccer World Cup
