“Your silence cannot save you.”Silence comes at a cost. It can cost us our health, our happiness, our peace, and our sense of self. When we keep suppressing our feelings, ignoring our struggles, it become a burden.

Hon. Dithapelo Lefoko Keorapetse, Speaker of the National Assembly of Botswana, reflects on Chief Albert Luthuli’s political legacy, highlighting how principles of democracy, education, sacrificial service, multiculturalism and egalitarianism shape his leadership.
He notes that Luthuli’s 1960 Nobel Peace Prize recognises a struggle that is fundamentally about who controls the institutions of the African state and the pursuit of independence.

Prof Puleng @LenkaBula emphasised the importance of knowledge in shaping the lives of South Africans. She noted that the theme of governance, institutional capacity and strategic investment is particularly relevant amid the changes taking place in South Africa, across the continent and globally.
She challenged institutions to reflect on the types of institutions and governance systems being created to serve society, strengthen knowledge systems and enable people to live with dignity while maximising the benefits of development.
