Human Development Indicators in South Africa Presented by Natasha Olubajo and Hanna Winkleman

Background of South Africa Some of the indigenous people of South Africa are the Zulu, Xhosa, Ndebele, Sotho and Swazi. South Africa was colonized by the Dutch and the English.

Nelson Mandela became the first black African to become president since they were colonized.

Analysis Even though South Africa is the most developed country in Africa they still need many improvements. Some problems that are especially troubling are the high rates of crime, HIV/AIDS, and unemployment. Not to mention fighting racism that has prevailed since they were colonized by the Dutch and English and was intensified during the racist times of Apartheid. Their government needs to continue to improve the education for all people but especially for the non-white people who have been left out of the system on purpose. Through education the people will be better prepared to improve their health, they can create more jobs and continue to prosper.
