This week I'd like to highlight the Corporate Council on Africa's website: http://africacncl.org/
The CCA is one of those organizations that does something. They engage with businesses/investors and facilitate the dialogue necessary to develop Africa.
Please check out their events (to include their frequent Working Group Breakfasts) and get involved.
I used to fly helicopters for the Navy. Now I work at U.S. embassies to build our mutual security cooperation/defense relationships. I'm also reading a novel from every country in Africa (33 so far). I'm in the process of moving these over to a dedicated website: www.beyondachebe.com. Most of my non-africa book reviews are now over at www.kruzoo.blogspot.com

FAO Quotables
"But being right, even morally right, isn't everything. It is also important to be competent, to be consistent, and to be knowledgeable. It's important for your soldiers and diplomats to speak the language of the people you want to influence. It's important to understand the ethnic and tribal divisions of the place you hope to assist."
