The Orange Farm Human Rights Advice Centre with Itsoseng Women’s Project hosted Africa Day on 25 May 2023 in Orange Farm and partnered with ProBono.Org to make the celebration a success.
The purpose of celebrating Africa Day was to bring people together including parents and children to raise awareness of the challenges that are taking place in their communities with regard to discrimination, xenophobia, hate speech and racism.
There was a truck playing African music and children proudly raising flags from the different African countries who walked around the community in the morning. ProBono.Org, Lawyers for Human Rights and the Department of Justice were invited to give presentations on these topics.
