- Description
- The Southern African Development Community (SADC) seeks to deepen economic integration among its members through the SADC free trade area that came into effect in January 2008. The thrust for a progressive reduction of tariff and no-tariff barriers, which the market integration model emphasises, has serious im-plications for the impact of transport and communication systems on economic integration and development within SADC. Transport and communications systems have an important bear-ing on economic integration and development because they can be significant non-tariff barriers. The SADC Protocol on Transport, Communications and Meteorology is the instrument through which transport and communications constraints are to be ad-dressed. Through this protocol, some institutions have been es-tablished and others proposed to ensure that projects designed to deepen economic integration and development are implemented effectively.
