SUMMARY:Edina Great Decisions: U.S. Engagement with Africa
DESCRIPTION:This free event is being held in-person and is open to everyone.  \nNearly half of the world’s population will reside in Africa by the end of the century. In addition\, the continent’s wide variety of natural resources has placed Africa at the center of intense competition between the U.S. and China. What could the U.S. strategy toward this critical region look like? \nThis program is presented by Edina Community Ed through a partnership with the Edina Senior Center\, the Edina Library\, the Edina Community Center\, and Global Minnesota. \nThe Great Decisions program addresses some of the most timely foreign policy issues facing the United States each year. Global Minnesota facilitates discussion groups across the state\, providing access to a roster of local foreign policy experts and offering Great Decisions books produced by the Foreign Policy Association. \nGary Prevost\, presenter \nGary Prevost is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the College of St. Benedict and St. John’s University and Research Associate and Honorary Professor at Nelson Mandela University in South Africa.  He is the author or co-editor of close to twenty books and over 100 academic articles on a range of international subjects. He has taught courses on international relations for fifty years and is regular lecturer in the Great Decisions program of Global Minnesota. \nRegister \nInterested in joining or starting a Great Decisions discussion group?
