Economy

Gauteng is considered the economic hub of South Africa and contributes heavily in the financial, manufacturing, transport, technology and telecommunications sectors, amongst others. An economic system is a System that involves the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services between It also plays host to a large number of overseas companies requiring a commercial base in and gateway to Africa.

Although Gauteng is the smallest of South Africa's nine provinces - it covers only 1. 4% of the country's total land area - it contributes 33. 9% of its gross domestic product (GDP). Indeed Gauteng generates 10% of the GDP of the entire African continent[1].

Future growth

Gauteng is growing rapidly, due to mass urbanisation that is a feature of many developing countries. According to the State of the Cities Report, the urban portion of Gauteng - comprised primarily of the cities of Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni (the East Rand) and Tshwane (greater Pretoria) - will be a polycentric urban region with a projected population of some 14. 6 million people by 2015, making it one of the largest cities in the world. AIDS may however negate this projection.

This rapid growth has brought with it both opportunities and challenges. As a global focal point, with access to the Southern African hinterland, Gauteng has the ability to link the world to a population approximately the same size as the United States. It is fast becoming to sub-Saharan Africa what the Eastern Seaboard megalopolis is to America. But this also presents some formidable obstacles, most notably the ability to provide access to basic amenities such as electricity and potable water. Transport is also a major problem, and Johannesburg, as the core of Gauteng, is beginning to experience the heavy traffic problems of cities such as Los Angeles and Bangkok. The Gautrain Rapid Rail Link is an attempt to remedy this problem, by providing efficient high-speed rail between Pretoria, Sandton, Johannesburg and OR Tambo International Airport; completion due 2010. Gautrain is an 80-kilometre mass rapid transit Railway system under construction in Gauteng Province, South Africa that will ultimately Pretoria is a city located in the northern part of Gauteng Province, South Africa. Sandton is a town in the northern part of the Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan Area, South Africa Johannesburg ( Pronounced /jō-hān'ĭs-bûrg'/ is the largest city in South Africa. OR Tambo International Airport is a large Airport near the city of Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa.

Government inability to deal with corruption adds to the problem of a region already bursting at the seams with illegal immigrants. These refugees from the rest of Africa flood into the economic hub of Southern Africa seeking a better life. They bring with them the legacies of the countries they are fleeing. It remains to be seen if this region can continue to play saviour to the people of other African states, without negatively being affected.

Education

Gauteng is a centre of learning in South Africa, and it has many universities and other schools of higher learning.

Gauteng Department of Education has embarked on a project to provide fully functional ICT laboratories to all public schools in Gauteng. The University of Limpopo is a university in the Limpopo Province, South Africa. Tshwane University of Technology ( TUT) is a Higher education institution in South Africa that came into being through a merger of three Technikons The University of Johannesburg ( Johannesburg, South Africa) came into existence on 1 January 2005 as the result of a merger between == A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE RAU == On 5 November 1963 468 delegates at a conference unanimously accepted a motion to establish an Afrikaans University Vista University, South Africa was established in 1981 by the Apartheid government to ensure that urban black South Africans seeking Tertiary education The Technikon Witwatersrand was a Technikon located in Johannesburg, South Africa.

For more info on walking in Gauteng, have a look at Gauteng Dogwalks homepage - it has photos, maps and more info on getting people safely back into the province's parks.

There are some interesting tourist attractions too: the Sterkfontein caves, and the Wonder Cave Kromdraai are in the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site.
