Nelson Mandela Day 2022 centered around the tagline, “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are” by focusing on three subthemes: supporting fruit and indigenous tree planting, promoting community and home-based gardens, and creating awareness of the intersections between food security and climate change.
Through partnering with Nelson Mandela University, a number of activities took place throughout the month across the Eastern Cape province, facilitated through Transect Walk Dialogues (TWDs). The walk through a community, led by the community, ends in a conversation among those present, guided by specific questions linked to a subtheme.
