Mission

The UK and South Africa work together to implement the UK-South Africa Strategy agreed by the British and South African Foreign Ministers in 2013 for a five year period. This work is in-line with the British government's wider foreign policy Priorities.

We work together with South Africa internationally, regionally and nationally on three strands of partnership: sustainable development, security, and governance and society.
