Africa Confidential was founded in 1960 as a subscription newsletter whose aim was to provide accurate, impartial reporting on Africa at a time when truly independent reporting and analysis was rare. While the delivery of our information has necessarily evolved over the decades, to meet the technological and other changes of the time, Africa Confidential has as strong a reputation as ever for the quality of the information it provides. Over 50 years since its founding, Africa Confidential remains one of the few truly independent sources of insider information on Africa.
