‘Inside Africa' from the AU Summit

PRCA Africa's Internship Charter drives best practices across Africa’s PR Industry

This weekend's ‘Inside Africa' on CNN International is presented by CNN's Johannesburg-based correspondent, Robyn Curnow, from the African Union Heads of State Meeting from Addis Adaba, Ethiopia.

The programme features the following:

Challenges facing the body, and its new chairman, Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi as conflicts remain in Congo, Somalia and Darfur.
An interview with outgoing chairman of the AU and Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikweti addressing the global economic crisis. President Kikweti warns that the crisis could be catastrophic for the continent as foreign aid dries up and commodity prices drop.
How the global economic crisis is affecting many of the continents commodity-based economies. How does the global price of grain and coffee affect a nation such as Ethiopia?
Curnow speaks to a group of Zimbabwean human rights activists who have made the trip to Addis to voice their unhappiness with African leaders, who they say too often ignore the plight of ordinary Africans.

The programme includes a behind-the-scenes look at how CNN International covers the summit - long hours, hordes of journalists and deadlines.
