Agenda• Requirements
• Non-State Actor Key Findings
• Methodological Key Findings
• Guided Tour Of The Wiki
![Page 3: Non-State Actors In Sub-Saharan Africa 2007-2012 Outlook](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/568148a9550346895db5bcae/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Requirement• What role will non-state actors (NSAs) play and what impact
will NSAs have in Sub-Saharan Africa over the next five years?
– What is the likely importance of NSAs vs. State Actors, Supra-State Actors and other relevant categories of actors in Sub-Saharan Africa?
– What are the roles of these actors in key countries, such as Niger?
– Are there geographic, cultural, economic or other patterns of activity along which the roles of these actors are either very different or strikingly similar?
• What analytical processes and methodologies were applied to the questions above and which proved to be effective or ineffective?

What Role Will Non-State Actors (NSAs) Play And What Impact Will NSAs Have In Sub-Saharan Africa Over The Next Five Years?

Key Findings• NSAs, On Average, Likely Play A Limited Role In Sub-
Saharan Africa
• NSA Roles Unlikely To Change
• Even Split Between Current Government Sanctioned And Extra-Government Role Potentials
Government Sanctioned Role Potentials:
(e.g. Unions, Lobbyists, Privatization)
Extra-Government Role Potentials:
(e.g. Violence, Bribery, etc.)

Key Findings
• Government Sanctioned Roles Likely To Moderately Increase Over The Next Five Years
• Extra-Government Roles Likely To See No Increase Within The Next Five Years

NSA Versus State Actors
• State Actors Likely To Have More Influence In Sub-Saharan Africa
• On Average, Government Control Likely To Stay The Same Within The Next Five Years
![Page 9: Non-State Actors In Sub-Saharan Africa 2007-2012 Outlook](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/568148a9550346895db5bcae/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

• Two Supra-State Organizations Likely Have Significant Influence In Sub-Saharan Africa– European Union
– United Nations
• It Is Unlikely That They Will Impact The Role Of NSAs Now And In The Next Five Years
NSA Versus Supra-State Actors

Potentials
– Represents Likely Role Potentials of Lawful And Unlawful NSAs
