Description:
Africa’s diversity and complexity present challenges when deciding what learning should take place. However, the new Programme of Study (PoS) offers much greater freedom to explore a varied range of physical and human geography. Focusing on a few key areas – the social, economic and political connections between the UK and Africa – Into Africa will provide a deeper insight into twenty-first century Africa.
