Pres. Mandela’s Address to 2nd SC Council, 21 September 1998

Address by President Nelson Mandela at the opening session of the South Centre’s Council of Representatives

New York, 21 September 1998

As the premier source of research on issues affecting the South, and growing out of the work and experience of the South Commission, the Centre plays a role whose value for the developing world cannot be underestimated…

…it is indeed a great privilege for me to express our gratitude to Mwalimu Julius Nyerere and all the other pioneers of the South Centre. I hope that we in the NAM and G77 plus China will redouble our efforts to support the South Centre so that it in turn helps us achieve our objective of over coming poverty and promoting peace.
