The Mapungubwe Institute (MISTRA) has noted the diplomatic developments between the US and SA since a webinar it hosted on 14 March 2025. MISTRA is committed to freedom of expression and of intellectual discourse, and we do hope that these issues will be resolved in the interest of the peoples of both countries.

Attached please find below the rationale behind the webinar as presented by our Director of Research, Dr. Sandy Africa.

More information on the webinar can be found on: ‘MISTRA Webinar: Implications of changes in US administration for South Africa and Africa – Mistra.
