AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

U.S. Visa Bonds Go Permanent: From 3 August, the U.S. will permanently require refundable visa bonds of up to $20,000 for B1/B2 business and tourist applicants from 50 countries, including Botswana and many other African nations—raising the ceiling from the earlier pilot and aiming to curb overstays. Botswana Learning Through Film: At the University of Botswana Confucius Institute, Chinese-studying students enjoyed a “Discover China Through Film” day featuring CZ12: Chinese Zodiac, with a Q&A that also highlighted cultural relics protection. De Beers Desert Diamonds in Shanghai: De Beers launched its “Desert diamonds” campaign for Asia at West Bund Orbit, blending a gong ceremony with fashion and cultural influencer buzz. Intra-Africa Trade via Storytelling: Bombo Investments partnered with the Africa Monologue Challenge to push AfCFTA-aligned trade and tourism through a pan-African creative residency in Ghana. Pageantry With Purpose (Namibia): Miss Teen Namibia 2026 winner Jessica Nokokure Kurth uses her platform to tackle nutrition and food security through her “Kutisee Ezumo” advocacy. Governance & Culture: SADC Electoral Advisory Council training for election observers in Zambia stressed understanding local electoral laws and carrying proper voter ID for credible, peaceful voting.
