Have you seen @DGMurrayTrust's new-look website and approach to escaping the inequality trap?

We can't keep tracing the same old pathways to development in South Africa, we need bold new twists to get us out of the rut!

[DGMT @DGMurrayTrust]

To build a thriving society, more people must have the knowledge, skills, & opportunity to participate fully in society & the economy, for the good of one another, & in synergy with the environment.

@iamtbotouch Listened to you speak about the need for fathers to be involved in the lives of boys as caregivers and role models. My colleague @KwandaNdoda produced a documentary about 'social fathers' - its called amaGents. You should chat to him on your show about this.

🎧 The question is not whether we can afford to zero-rate, but whether we can afford not to.

In 2022, ICASA included the zero-rating of PBOs as a license condition for mobile operators, but implementation has since come to a standstill.

If South Africans had access to the information and services offered on mobile platforms, it would improve their quality of life and grow our economy.

Have you heard about social employment and why it matters?

I recently facilitated a conversation about the Social Employment Fund for @DGMurrayTrust's ecosystem of projects.

I spoke to implementers from @wcedp, Learning Trust, Assitej-SA and VPUU.

Social employment has created thousands of job opportunities in sectors contributing to the common good. It's also creating social value in communities.

But we are not talking about this enough!

So, I joined @wcedp to talk about how to communicate social impact.
