As the unipolar world of the 1990s is replaced by international multipolarity, the topic of regionalism has never been more pertinent. From the European Union to the Association of South East Asian Nations, countries are opting to unite with their neighbors in order to promote peace, a prominent position on the international stage, and economic prosperity. In Africa there has been a considerable increase in regional cooperation, both political and economic, which is serving to improve the situation in and international position of the continent.

In addition to looking in greater detail at the history and development of cultural diplomacy, the next CDA week-long Seminar will focus on current and future issues facing Africa and how these will affect its future development.
