Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the world’s most dynamic regions and includes six of the world's ten fastest-growing economies (The Economist, IMF). Despite robust economic growth and increasing commitment to democratic governance across the continent, vast income disparities and ethnic and religious conflict persist. From Nigeria to the Horn of Africa, tribal violence, radical insurgency movements, and conflict between Christians and Muslims threaten sustainable peace and development.
