Dear Reader

I am delighted to send you the new and Improved CBC eNewsletter. It has been redesigned to be easier to use and to tell you more about the CBC's activities.

In visiting East Africa last week I had the opportunity to meet with both HE President Museveni of Uganda and HE President Kagame of Rwanda and held useful discussions with both regarding various CBC projects in the Region.

This month also sees the release of our 10 year Strategy Document, which will offer an insight into CBC's plans over the coming years, To download a copy click here. We welcome any feedback from our members, and look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events.
