The discussion formed part of a broader conversation on a SADC Protocol on Children for Industrialisation, Agricultural Transformation and a Just Energy Transition, with a shared focus on ensuring that development frameworks consider children's rights, safety and protection.
As part of the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund's Khuluma Mntwana Sikuzwe (Speak, child. We are listening) strategy, Anzio Jacobs joined UNICEF & Kutunga for a discussion on the effects of digitalisation without infrastructure and what this means for children.

Whether the challenge is unemployment, inequality, limited opportunities or access to services, young people have an important role in shaping the solutions. Support #Mandelathon and help us continue changing the way society treats its children: https://t.co/WbuHFu6Pdl
This Youth Day, we recognise that young people face different realities, but share many of the same ambitions: to learn, build skills, find opportunities & have a say. This is central to our Youth Leadership Programme, which equips youth with skills to change their communities.
✊🏾We honour the courage & resilience of women who shaped South Africa's history. We recognise that empowering women is central to building stronger communities. We work alongside communities to support women's empowerment, strengthen livelihoods & create opportunities for youth.
Working alongside community healthcare workers, clinics and implementing partners, we help strengthen maternal and child health, promote good nutrition, and ensure families have the support they need to give every child the best possible start.

🤱 This year's theme for #WorldBreastfeedingWeek, "Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works," reflects the work of the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund, which supports mothers, families and children during the critical first 1,000 days of life.
The visit included the cheque handover, the donation of care packs, and time spent with young patients and their families, bringing comfort and hope beyond the hospital wards. We extend our sincere gratitude to Sasol for this generous contribution. #NMCF30Years#ServeLikeMadiba
As part of the @SasolSA For Good Mandela 67 Minutes initiative, Sasol handed over a R1 million donation to the Nelson Mandela Children's Hospital (@_NMCH_),our flagship project, reaffirming a shared commitment to improving the lives of children who need specialised healthcare.
Our Board Chairperson, Deputy Chairperson, CEO & CFO met with Mme Shirley Mabusela, former Trustee of the Fund & respected child rights activist. We're grateful for the opportunity to learn from leaders who have helped shape the Fund's journey.

Today @FordSouthAfrica joined the Make Mandela Bear Magic experience in Gqeberha, making bears that will bring comfort & smiles to children receiving treatment at the Nelson Mandela Children's Hospital (@_NMCH_). Every bear is a reminder to a child that they are not alone.
Today, the UN in South Africa, alongside the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund, Nelson Mandela Foundation and Graça Machel Trust, launched Thando and Freddy’s Big SDG Adventure, a children’s book inspiring young changemakers through the SDG Goals and Madiba's values.
Today, we celebrate the life & legacy of Nelson Mandela, whose belief in justice, dignity & the rights of every child continues to guide our work. As we honour Madiba's life, we renew our commitment to building a SA where every child is safe.
