EDUCATION AND HEALTH
Education: The RSAs illiteracy rate declined from 15.8% to 14.3% in the case of male adults and 17.5% to 15.8% in the case of female adults between 1995 and 1999 (World Bank South Africa Data Profile 2000: 1).
Assessments have rated the quality of tertiary education in the RSA as poor, at 46 out of 59 economies. Maths and science education was rated as 58, the second worst of those 59 countries assessed. The difference in the quality of schools in the RSA also fared very poorly, being placed at 54 out of 59 countries. The quality of public-funded schools was rated as poor at 44 out of 59 countries (World Economic Forum 2000: 197).
Health: In 1995 the average life expectancy of South Africans was 62 for males and 68 for females (International Bank for Reconstruction and Development 2000: 232).
The RSA has a very large range in the quality of healthcare, is therefore considered to have an inadequate healthcare system nationally, being rated at 50 out of 59 countries (World Economic Forum 2000: 197).
Over the last six years, Zimbabwe has lost a million people to AIDS. It has been estimated that 25% of Zimbabweans are infected with HIV (Synge 2000: 488).
