The TotalEnergies CAF Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations 2026 | COSAFA Qualifiers were recently staged in Harare, Zimbabwe to full stadiums and an incredible atmosphere. Stands were packed at the Ngoni Stadium despite the host nation going out in the group stages, and it was a reminder again, if one was needed, just what a football-loving country Zimbabwe is. South Africa took home the trophy for a record-equaling fourth time, drawing them level with Zambia on the all-time list, with a squad that was put together just days before the tournament started. They qualify for the TotalEnergies CAF Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations 2026, along with runners-up Angola and Mozambique, who took the bronze medal. The trio will represent the COSAFA region on the continental stage and we hope will be three of the 10 African nations who will qualify for the FIFA Under-17 World Cup in Qatar next year. We will hear from all three of their coaches, starting with South Africa's Vela Khumalo, who had just a few training sessions to get his side ready for competition. Angola coach Mario Catala was disappointed his side could only take home the silver medal despite an excellent run to the final in which they scored 18 goals in four games and did not conceded a single one. But his pre-tournament aim was also to qualify for the continental finals, and that was achieved.Mozambique coach Luis Guerreiro had to settle for the bronze medal but he too can look forward to a place in the continental finals after the Young Mambas beat Comoros 3-0 in the third-place play-off.

Zimbabue es uno de los países más desiguales de África, pero alberga una industria minera en rápido crecimiento porque posee las mayores reservas de litio del continente. Sin embargo, el negocio del litio, por ahora, está en manos de compañías extranjeras. Por Irene Savio, desde Bulawayo, Zimbabue  En una carretera polvorienta en las afueras de Bulawayo, la segunda ciudad de Zimbabue, el alba apenas rompe el horizonte. Un grupo de hombres con cascos, ropa de trabajo y rostros marcados por el hambre se preparan para iniciar su jornada. Son mineros que, a pie o en autobuses desvencijados, se dirigen a las minas que salpican el paisaje, rodeados de chozas y árboles raquíticos. Zimbabue es uno de los países más desiguales de África, pero también alberga una industria minera en rápido crecimiento, impulsada por la demanda mundial de litio, el mineral esencial para ordenadores, teléfonos y coches eléctricos que alimentan la nueva revolución tecnológica. Compañías extranjeras Grasian Mkodzongi, investigador del Instituto de Investigación de Tierras y Recursos Naturales de África Tropical, señala que el país posee las mayores reservas de litio del continente y es el cuarto productor mundial de este recurso. No obstante, dice Mkodzongi, “el negocio del litio está hoy en manos de compañías extranjeras, que lo extraen y se lo llevan a sus países”. Esta dependencia externa ha motivado al Gobierno zimbabuense a proponer, por primera vez en África, la construcción de plantas de procesamiento dentro del territorio nacional. La intención es que el valor añadido del litio beneficie directamente a la población local, creando empleos y fomentando la industrialización. “Quieren aumentar las oportunidades de empleo. Es una medida buena, pero solo si está vinculada a esfuerzos para industrializar”, advierte Mkodzongi. China, en el horizonte China, hasta la fecha, es el principal actor extranjero en la extracción de litio en Zimbabue, gestionando cinco de las seis minas más importantes del país. Sin embargos, muchos consideran esta relación no equitativa en igualdad de ventajas, como Farai Maguwu, director del Centro de Gobernanza de Recursos Naturales de Harare, quien dice sin tapujos que “la población se ha beneficiado, por ahora, poco y nada de este valioso mineral”. Además, describe los salarios que reciben los trabajadores como “de esclavitud”, y subraya la precariedad de las condiciones laborales. Pero lograr que la población realmente se beneficie del litio puede que no sea tan fácil. Algunos analistas apuntan a la pesada carga de la deuda externa de Zimbabue, parte de ella en manos de China, como un factor que puede complicar los intentos de reforma. ¿Hacia un futuro mejor? En medio de este panorama, voces desde el propio sector minero relatan la peligrosidad de la actividad. Un exminero, que prefiere mantenerse en el anonimato por motivos de seguridad, cuenta: “Me fui a trabajar a una mina sin protección, y un día la mina colapsó y murió una persona. Entonces lo dejé, es muy peligroso.” En medio de estas dificultades, el Gobierno de Zimbabue asegura estar trabajando en la construcción de las infraestructuras que necesita. Esto, con el objetivo de que estos proyectos sentarán las bases para un desarrollo sostenible y una mayor distribución de la riqueza generada por el recurso. El tiempo dirá si esto era verdad.

Forrest Galante was born on March 31st, 1988 in California, but within the first few months of his life moved to Harare, Zimbabwe. He grew up on a productive farm that cultivated luxury alstroemeria flowers, various fruits and was home to a myriad of livestock and wild African animals. As a child, Galante's favorite pastimes included catching snakes, fishing in the dam, breeding guinea pigs and playing rugby. When he wasn't enjoying life on the farm, his mother would take him and his sister on safari in the African bush. As one of Africa's first female safari guides and bush pilots, Galante's mother took her children to explore some of the most remote parts of Africa, collecting artifacts and observing wildlife. Galante was enthralled by all wildlife and knew he would one day pursue a career with animals. At age 14, Galante was the youngest person to ever lead an international canoe safari down the Zambezi River.In 2001, Galante's world was turned upside down when terrible political turmoil in Zimbabwe caused their farm to be seized. They were forcefully evicted from their home in the middle of the night and fled the country of Zimbabwe. With only a suitcase each and a couple hundred dollars, Galante and his family returned to California to the small town of Cayucos, and later Santa Barbara.Galante turned to free diving and spearfishing as a way to adjust to his new life in California. Over time and as his skills developed, Galante made a name for himself in the underwater community. He traveled to various countries to participate in spearfishing events and today holds six pole spear world records. Along the way, Galante also got certified as a SCUBA dive master, a 100-ton ship captain, and an EMT. In 2009, he graduated from UC Santa Barbara with a degree in biology; special emphasis in marine biology and herpetology.The year after his college graduation, Galante took a year to travel the world. He visited 46 of the most remote places on earth to work with and photograph rare wildlife. Along his journey, he caught crocodiles, dove with white sharks, photographed venomous snakes, outsmarted a startled hippo, dodged a cyclone, and had countless other adventures-but also was hospitalized multiple times.Upon returning to California, Galante pursued a career in high-risk wildlife biology fieldwork, always focusing on animals on the brink of extinction. In 2014, he participated in Discovery's hit show, Naked and Afraid and scored one of the highest PSRs (primate survival rating) ever on the show. Galante's hands-on approach to wildlife, passion for nature and extraordinary background eventually led to the development of his own television show, Extinct or Alive, on Animal Planet. The show followed Galante as he travels the globe searching for animals he believes have wrongfully been deemed extinct.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.
