JOIN OUR ARTS SESSION

Active Citizenship in partnership with Servant Leader invites you to a discussion about Arts and Culture in South Africa.

 

Given the history of South Africa, the arts allow and empower citizens to use voice and movement as a way to express freedom;  which is crucial in a democracy.

 

Join us as #firsttimevoters to discuss the role that Brigitte Mabandla and Barbara Masekela played in transforming Arts and Culture in South Africa.

Georgina Walther

University of Cape Town

" I enjoy having conversations and debates concerning political, societal, environmental and economic factors and how they impact different people in different ways. I feel it is important to listen and learn from other people with differing backgrounds and experiences. I believe this creates a more holistic understanding of these issues and spheres of life to allow us a more intersectional approach to addressing them."

Edith Mugadza

Second-year Bachelor of Social Science in Psychology and Law UCT

I am a first-generation immigrant, having been born in Zimbabwe and raised in Johannesburg. I've always been very passionate about social and humanitarian causes, and hope to make use of my studies in order to help others. I believe that in order to aid in the growth and development of Africa, it is important that we adequately address issues of gender inequality, xenophobia and discrimination.
