5 Introduction Interrelation between Trade and Transport Since 1994, the SADC tries to intensify its regional cooperation on a common policy on trade to create a free trade zone for the SADC Region. To reach this aim it will be necessary to increase the efficiency of transport and logistic systems as trade will only grow by reliable and cost-efficient economic alliances and structures of communication. Dr. Tomaz Augusto Salomao, Executive Secretary of SADC, pronounced in the SADC Council of Ministers in February 2006: It cannot be overemphasised that infrastructure and services are some of the enablers of regional integration in the SADC Countries. The SADC Secretariat considers the corridors of importance for the achievement of Millennium Development Goals. The sector infrastructure and services, often neglected during the last decade in the area of development cooperation, is more than building roads or constructing networks of electricity. Improved transport infrastructure and especially logistics creates a basis for sustainable economic development. Therefore, well developed logistic systems and concepts play a key-role for the business development of the whole region. Additionally, all these factors will contribute considerably to reach the Millennium Development Goals of the United Nations, such as poverty reduction and achieving universal primary education. Transport Costs - a Trade Barrier for Africa International trade and future business development in the SADC depend on a solution for the transport crisis in the region. It is a fact that transport costs in Africa are currently up to four times higher than tariffs imposed by countries like the USA or the European Union. Complicated and costly border crossings cause unnecessary transport costs and are major obstacles and trade barriers which have to be eliminated by the SADC. 5
6 Introduction Efficient transport and communications infrastructure and services are a prerequisite for Africa s development and integration. Interregional and overseas transport and communications facilitate the expansion of trade, because trade is only possible if people and goods can reach the production and consumption areas physically (using transport mode) or virtually (using information and communications technology). In the 21st Century which will be characterized by globalisation and competition, sound transport and communications infrastructure networks and services will facilitate considerably the continent s full participation into the current profound mutation at world-wide level. The key-role of modern logistics for a regional development has also been realised by the ministries of transport. Approaches on further InWEnt training programmes were identified in joint discussions with the partners in the region transport ministries in the SADC countries and the SADC Secretariat which focus on the issue of economic development by modern logistic concepts. 6
7 InWEnt Long-Term Training Programme Objectives A main objective of this InWEnt programme is to contribute to the implementation of the SADC Protocol on Trade. The approach of the SADC countries on enforcing their policy on trade will be supported by the implementation of sustainable and competitive logistic concepts which strengthen the economic and commercial structure of the SADC region. This advanced training programme is dedicated to managerial personnel from logistic companies and business enterprises as well as to members of relevant institutions and administrations of the transport and logistics sector. The participants of our training course will learn about the significance, the elaboration and implementation of innovative logistic concepts. They will learn from their SADC colleagues as well as from German experiences during the training programme in Germany. Transport a key issue for South-South exchange The development of networks is a fundamental condition to reach SADC objectives. The need for increased SADC regional co-operation justifies building a network of successful, reliable and sustainable transport systems: i.e. networking of the various carriers. InWEnt supports these initiatives of so called South-South exchange. Networking of carriers should be considered as one of the best ways to integrate transport chains in order to improve the logistic transport planning in all countries involved based on environmentally-friendly freight flows and on avoidance of unnecessary traffic. 7
8 InWEnt Long-Term Training Programme Structure The present advanced training programme is a continuation of the former InWEnt training programme Logistic Concepts in Commercial Transport in the SADC Region (carried out ). With their combination of theoretical and practice-oriented elements, completed by excursions and the module of the International Management Training (IMT), our long-term training programmes with a duration of six months have established a unique capacity building course. This course is characterized by the integration of the principles of ecological and social sustainability, a strong support of South-South- Exchange and the guideline think global, act regional. The participants will learn about the importance of sustainable logistic concepts for business development and for promoting regional and international trade.

The whole programme will be conducted in accordance with a strategy that requires from each participants a high level of engagement and motivation to participate actively. 9
10 InWEnt Long-Term Training Programme International Management Training (IMT) Practice-based economic know-how, communication skills, social competence, team ability, networked thinking and creativity are basic requirements for executives nowadays. Therefore, the International Management Training (IMT) is the final stage in the training programme Sustainable Logistic Concepts for Business Development in the SADC Region. By employing modules like change management and innovation management, the IMT enables the participants to work as change agents and multipliers in their home countries. Certificates Official certificate from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development plus supplementary sheet on detailed contents from InWEnt and the partner institution conducting the advanced training. Additionnally, within the framework of this programme, will be offered to each participant the opportunity to obtain a formal certificate according to the standards of the European Logistics Association (ELA). The ELA certificate is available to those who are able to meet the professionals standards set by the ELA. For this programme there are 2 levels of competence: EJLog European Junior Logistican on the Supervisory/Operational Management level ESLog European Senior Logistican on the Senior Management level.
