“Experience-Sharing Program on Development Between China and Africa” this article is about a program that the Chinese government is running. The program is designed to help inform many African countries (including Zimbabwe) on how to spend up the growth of their economic and social progression. The highest-level government officials of the selected African countries will go to China for secessions where they will explore some of the major problems in Africa today such as trade development, rural development, and agriculture. This program is an example of global interdependence because China is a very strong well-developed country that is taking some of the African countries under their wing to help them. These African countries are depending on China for support and structural advice on how to help their country develop quickly, and successfully. This program is an example of great global interdependence. [|Experience-Sharing Program on Development Between China and Africa]

A program called “Gender-Based Violence: We Need to Act” is about helping solve gender-based violence by holding a speaking session. In this session many people will be talking about focused topics, or countries that are considered to have gender-based violence. Some of the topics that will be discussed: will be roles of partnership, women’s rights, and human rights. One of the speakers has done a lot of research on Zimbabwe and is presenting a speech about electoral systems, AIDS, and land reform. This program is an example of global interdependence because this session is getting the word out. The speakers will help inform people of the gender-based violence that goes on in some less fortunate countries. Then, since the people are the ones to make up the countries the people that see this program will be able to give help to the countries that have problems like gender-based violence. Global interdependence will then take place within the countries that are receiving help from the countries that are giving help. [|Gender-Based Violence: We Need to Act]

This article titled “Relations between the European Union and Zimbabwe” was about the relationship of the European Union and Zimbabwe throughout history. Today the European Union and Zimbabwe do not have a good global relationship. The United Kingdom and Zimbabwe used to have a good relationship, but when the UK and Zimbabwe had a falling out the UK turned to the European Union. The UK told the European Union to crake down on Zimbabwe and to tell them to get their act together. When Zimbabwe did not listen to the European Union then their relationship ended. This shows that sometime global relationships don’t always work out and that can hurt your country. For example if a country is a big trading partner for you, and your relationship ends then you won’t get your products you depend on them for. Global interdependence is a great way to communicate, and trade, but if there is a dispute between two countries then global interdependence can get a little messy.

In the video “OBAMA MEETING WITH MORGAN TSVANGIRAI” President Obama meets with Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangiral from Zimbabwe to discuss US and Zimbabwe relations. For a while now Zimbabwe has gone through a ruff time politically and economically, and the President of Zimbabwe is not looking out for his people with the best interests in mind. The United States and Zimbabwe now have a power sharing agreement, which will help improve human rights, rule of press, and democracy. The US is also trying to help Zimbabwe with school systems, and health care systems. This is good for global interdependence because the US is extending a hand to Zimbabwe, and Zimbabwe is accepting. Becoming friends, and creating a power sharing agreement is a good start to a global relationship. [|OBAMA MEETING WITH MORGAN TSVANGIRAI]

In the article “China, Zimbabwe pledge to enhance military relations” China and Zimbabwe are just digging deeper into a global relationship. China and Zimbabwe were friends, and when China saw what good partners they became in the defense forces in the Military they made a stronger relationship. Now China and Zimbabwe have a great progressing military and global relationship. This relationship has dependence both ways. For example China depends on Zimbabwe for Military help, and Zimbabwe depends on China for economical, and political help. The way global interdependence should go, both sides helping each other out.
