2\ Impact of infrastructure and industrial projects on the African environment and wildlife.
3\ Security and stability challenges that threaten free commerce, investment, and the private sector in Africa.
4\ Business and investment opportunities in African countries.
5\ Success stories from Africa; professionals, entrepreneurs, and community actors.
The number of reports for 6 months is 5, and the first month is training. After the first month of training, weekly updates and short reports on the needed information are made and shared with the sponsors.
The cost of mentoring and training the reporter, including the translation of his/her work into English is (US$7,000).
