PROGRAMME OF EVENTS

Please bear with us if things change a little as we go along. This is community-oriented, non-profit and under-funded work - it can happen that a workshop starts late, or is rescheduled (due to transport issues for instance). But we promise it is happening, with commitment and enthusiasm.

Thursday 25, visit of all children cabinet and their parents to the Pan African Parliament in Midrand. They will enter a debate, from their countries perspective, on the xenophobic events and the way to avoid this in future. The debates will have been prepared in a number of schools (dates to be confirmed) - poster on 'what happened in Alex', school's pledge against xenophobia, and debate on 'what could I do if I was a community leader'. The number of children concerned will depend on the availability of funding.
