South Africa: SA commemorates International Human Rights Day
As South Africa joins the global community in commemorating the International Human Rights Day, Social Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu and Deputy Minister Hendrietta Bogopane-Zulu will today participate in various activities that draw attention to human rights issues.
Bogopane-Zulu, in partnership with the MTN SA Foundation will launch a multimedia centre for the youth at Bambisandla Sam Centre in Carletonville, Gauteng.
The state-of-the-art multimedia centre comprises 22 computers fitted with an interactive board that allows the educator to present the class curriculum to the learners.
The department said that the opening of the multimedia centre comes in the midst of the global COVID-19 pandemic, which has given rise to the need for free access to education on digital and remote learning platforms, especially for learners in disadvantaged communities across the country.
