    £1 (free for members) WINTER 2010 FOCUS ON SWAZILAND The articles in ACTSA News do not necessarily represent any agreed position of ACTSA itself. EDITOR/ Sarah Terrazas FRONT COVER/ Children queuing for food at a SWAPOL feeding station in Swaziland. Many of the children SWAPOL helps have been orphaned by HIV/AIDS or are themselves infected. CREDIT / David Taylor LAYOUT/ Do Good Advertising ADDRESS/ Action for Southern Africa 231 Vauxhall Bridge Road London EMAIL/ SW1V 1EH [email protected] TEL/ WEBSITE/ 020 3263 2001 www.actsa.org note from the editor WELCOME TO THE FINAL EDITION OF ACTSA NEWS FOR 2010. As plans get underway for 2011, we look back on a busy year. As expected, all eyes were on South Africa over the summer. In this issue we reflect on the positive effect the World Cup could have for development in southern Africa, and our plans to build on what was achieved. We are grateful to Aaron Mokoena, captain of the South African football team, for granting us an exclusive interview. In it, he talks about his impressions of the World Cup and its legacy for his country, and the work of his foundation, which helps children in South Africa participate in football. Our focus for this issue of ACTSA News is Swaziland. ACTSA has long been campaigning for democracy in Africa’s only absolute monarchy, and on page six we look at how a decline in rights and democracy in the country is compounded by a growing economic crisis. In October we were delighted to host a visit from Stephen Lewis, who spoke at our conference on gender and development in southern Africa which followed the ACTSA AGM.
