Gregory Mthembu-Salter

I am an experienced researcher, analyst, consultant, and published author on African political economy, with a particular expertise in natural resource governance. I have worked across Southern, Central, Eastern and West Africa for a variety of organisations, including the UN, USAID, GIZ, FCDO, OECD and World Bank, and for numerous private sector clients. I have also worked as a journalist on Africa's political economy, principally for the Economist Intelligence Unit, The Africa Report and South Africa's Mail&Guardian. In 2019, my first book was published, on South African political economy, and particularly the relationship between people and cattle there.
