More than 1 100 young South Africans have spoken through our national creative competitions, Hear Me Out and Keready to Ringa, sharing raw truths about mental health, identity, safety and the need to be heard. Their message is simple: “Don’t just tell us to speak. Make it safe for us to be heard.” Our reports highlight their voices, alongside new insights on what it means to put children and teens at the centre of South Africa’s future.
Alcohol harm isn’t just an adult issue, it deeply affects unborn babies, children and teenagers too. From unsafe homes to school dropouts and even lives lost, the impact is real. Our new teen-friendly guide, How South Africa Can Stop Hurting its Children by Reducing Heavy Drinking, speaks directly to young people about alcohol, its risks, and how we can all rethink the role it plays in our lives.
