China's increasing role as an education donor in Africa, and the significance of this both economically and politically.Why does China run one of the world's largest shortterm training programmes, with plans to bring 30,000 Africans to China between 2013 and 2015?Why does it give generous support to 31 Confucius Institutes teaching Mandarin and Chinese culture at many of Africa's top universities from the Cape to Cairo?Why is China one of the very few countries to increase the number of full scholarships for Africans to study in its universities,a total of 18,000 anticipated between 2013 and 2015?China claims to have been involved for 60 years in SouthSouth cooperation of mutual benefit to China and Africa. While its dramatic economic and trade impact, particularly on Africa, has caught global attention, little focus has yet been given to its role as an education donor and especially to the critical role of China's support for training and human resource development for Africans inChina, and within Africa itself. It is vital that we understand what is going on, and why education is so important in ChinaAfrica relations. Here is hard evidence from Ethiopia, South Africa and Kenya of the dramatic growth ofChina's soft power and increasing impact in capacitybuilding, and of the implications of this for Africa, China and the world.
