Genderbased violence (GBV) remains critical in South Africa’s posteducation and training sector. Female students are particularly vulnerable to experiencing physical and psychological harm, as demonstrated by a Higher Health (HH) study, which found that 62% of South African students feel unsafe on campus.
The National Development Agency (NDA) in South Africa has established a partnership with the German Cooperative Raiffeisen Confederation (DGRV) to promote sustainable livelihoods and economic participation of the impoverished through communitybased cooperatives. The partnership aims to provide necessary support and training to the cooperatives for integrated community programs that boost financial and economic inclusivity.
