Africa's Eden is a legitimate regional tourism association promoting Southern African destinations, demonstrating clear real-world utility in the B2B travel sector. However, the project submission is severely compromised by unprofessional and unverifiable inputs. The respondent ('SilentStorm') lists traction as 'most people have used my product,' which is factually incorrect, and categorizes 'Leisure' as a technology. While the underlying organization exists and has value, the PoU score is drastically reduced due to the lack of technological innovation, false reach claims, and low-quality response data.
