ABOUT SADC
SADC TREATY
KEY STRATEGIC DOCUMENTS
The Southern African Development Coordinating Conference (SADCC), established on 1 April 1980 was the precursor of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The SADCC was transformed into the SADC on 17 August 1992 in Windhoek, Namibia where the SADC Treaty was adopted, redefining the basis of cooperation among Member States from a loose association into a legally binding arrangement.
SADC has a number of strategic documents guiding the implementation of its regional integration and development agenda. These strategic documents, among others, include; the revised Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan (RISDP), revised Strategic Indicative Plan for the Organ on Defence, Politics and Security (SIPO II), SADC Regional Infrastructure Development Master Plan (RIDMP) and SADC Industrialization Strategy and Roadmap 2015-2063.
