ABOUT US : WHAT WE DO

The annual Southern African Transport Conference is Southern Africa’s premier transport conference, bringing together over 700 transport professionals to discuss, debate and learn about relevant topics relating to the exciting world of transport.

This year under the theme of “Theme: Towards a desired transport future: Safe, Sufficient and Affordable” the conference will take place from 9 -12 July 2018 at the CSIR Convention Centre in Pretoria.

The conference is South Africa’s longest standing transport conference and over the last 36 years it has become an important contributor to and influencer in the national debate about transport in Southern Africa.

In the build up to the conference there is a call to enter research papers, which begins in the first half of the year, with only the top papers being selected to feature at this prestigious conference. Essentially all subjects presented at the SATC are based on research papers that are strictly reviewed and selected by the Technical Committee during March.

The Conference is endorsed by the Department of Transport with the Minister of Transport being our honoured patron.
