In a world where injustice can sometimes feel insurmountable, it is heartening to observe the proactive actions taken by the South African Department of Social Development. They have embarked on an initiative to consult with children on the National Strategic Plan on GenderBased Violence and Femicide (NSPGBVF). This consultation process has taken place in multiple provinces such as Gauteng, Western Cape, Northern Cape, KwaZuluNatal, North West, and Limpopo. The department intends to expand this initiative to Free State and Mpumalanga on the 23rd of September.
In the midst of gang violence and drug abuse in Cape Town, Hanover Park Bicycles for Change (HPBFC) has taken on a unique mission to create a safer environment. By offering constructive alternatives to gangsterism and drugs, particularly for the younger generation, the initiative is steering the community towards a brighter future.
