'Build-a-Nation' (BAN) was a campaign to increase support for the United Federal Party (UFP), and for its policy of inter-racial partnership, among all races but particularly among the African peoples of the Federation. In practice, it was limited to the Rhodesias (Zambia and Zimbabwe) (especially Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe)) and designed to increase African support for the United Federal Party (UFP) and register (and recruit) additional African voters.

Includes reports on the progress of the campaign and on its difficulties (particularly in Northern Rhodesia (Zambia)); separation of the campaign from the United Federal Party; fundraising brief for Roy Welensky for London and establishment of a London Committee and fundraising by it; memorandum on voting in the forthcoming Southern Rhodesian (Zimbabwean) elections; discussion of winding down the campaign and the damage to the United Federal Party of such a move (all 1962)....
