How can we make research fairer, more human and more useful to the people whose lives it seeks to understand?

Farm murders are tragic but NOT genocide - your own stats show they’ve dropped 70% since 1998. Meanwhile, black agricultural workers die at HIGHER rates & townships face worse violence. Stop touring Europe with apartheid nostalgia while ignoring that crime affects ALL SAns.

Can't get over the IDF killing 15 paramedics in Rafah, attempting to
bury them and their ambulance, claiming they were "terrorists" and then shooting to kill the rescue team sent in to find their missing friends. Not surprised, just stuck. Can't seem to move on from here.

No Afriforum. You should hold yourselves liable for peddling lies about our laws and cosying up with someone whose conflict of interest is driving the policy decisions he is making the US adopt concerning South Africa. Do not pass the buck. Own the consequences of your actions.

🌍✨ New Insights on Creativity and Empowerment! ✨🌍
"Reported impact of creativity in the Wakakosha ('You're Worth It') internal stigma intervention for young people living with HIV in Harare, Zimbabwe."
Link here,

ALT This article highlights how creativity within the Wakakosha ("You’re Worth It") programme is transforming lives by addressing internal stigma among young people with HIV in Harare, Zimbabwe. 🎨❤ Through creative practices, such as poetry, song and body mapping, participants are encouraged to connect with and regulate their emotions, share their stories openly, and find a supportive community. These activities foster a safe space where young people can build confidence and self-acceptance. 🌈💪
ALT The findings reveal that integrating creativity into stigma interventions has a powerful impact on mental wellbeing and self-worth. Discover how art and self-expression are sparking positive change! 🖌 #Wakakosha #EndStigma #Empowerment #HIVAwareness
