Nelson Mandela Anti-Racism Week will occur on campus from 19th – 25th March this year. Nelson Mandela’s legacy, courage, and persistence in combating racism and oppression during apartheid and promoting non-racism, non-sexism, peace, and reconciliation in post-apartheid South Africa, is an inspiration to all who envision an equal society. Building on the success of the inaugural Nelson Mandela Anti-Racism Week 2023, the week of events in 2024 aims to raise awareness, promote belonging and align with Nelson Mandela’s vision. Taking this as a starting point, the programme of events also responds to the current geopolitical landscape and the human rights atrocities that we bear witness to in so many parts of the world today. The events are designed to be deliberative and interactive, facilitating discussion, learning and engagement on a wide range of issues relevant to race, ethnicity, anti-racism, human rights and social justice. The programme of events incorporates student and staff-led activities including seminars, training, workshops, exhibitions and cultural events and activities.
