Intercultural dialogue
Intercultural dialogue has become our approach for community building, extending bridges for knowledge sharing and exposure across divided communities as well as to international friends, peers, creative thought leaders and young people.
Opportunities for engagement:
Knowledge sharing during cultural diversity workshops
............................................................................................................
Joining young people of diverse backgrounds and interests in intercultural dialogue projects
Silulutho Youth Group
............................................................................................................
Creating opportunities for international visitors to engage as project sponsors, mentors, participants
 MBA study group from Kassel International Management School (KIMS):
10 day case study programme in the township of Masiphumelele, Western Cape

Throughout the year we built bridges between enrolled entrepreneurs and international visitors.
 Some visitors bought products, participated in tours and made donations to projects, they were introduced to by the entrepreneurs. Charlotte from Nomthunzi Township Tours for example, introduced German visitors to an Aids orphanage in Masiphumelele and secured a major donation by the visitors for the orphans (over 200,00 Rand). On another occasion, we introduced visitors to the Saturday School ASSET, which tutors township youth for passing their High School exams. Here too, intercultural bridge building lead to bursaries for five students to enroll in university programs. |
