Student protests over tuition fees continue to disrupt teaching and academic life at South African universities. Violent clashes between students and police have been raging on campuses for several weeks despite calls from university officials to save the academic year from breakdown. Last week, protesters threw petrol bombs at buildings in the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, where a library was torched last month. At the University of Cape Town, teaching resumed on 17 October.

At its meeting in Songdo, South Korea, the Fund's governing board also selected Howard Bamsey, former director-general of the Global Green Growth Institute and Australia's special envoy on climate change, as new executive director.
