It is a major concern that the neglect and abuse of children is reported to be worsening,\u201d says Maboya.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to equip our schools with programmes like Thari to help protect those who are vulnerable to abuse and violence and to create a network of support to whom learners can be referred \u2013 both those who experience violence as victims, as well as those who act violently towards others,\u201d adds Maboya<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe partnership between the department and stakeholders such as the Cyril Ramaphosa Foundation is a clear demonstration that active participation by civil society will lead to us finding collective solutions to most of the challenges in the education sector,\u201d says MEC Dr Makgoe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"post-views-icon dashicons dashicons-chart-bar\"><\/span> <span class=\"post-views-label\">Press Release Views since 1 July 2022:<\/span> <span class=\"post-views-count\">134<\/span> <\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/the-cyril-ramaphosa-foundations-thari-programme-hosts-conference-to-discuss-the-results-of-its-five-year-pilot-project-in-botshabelo\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republish for Free Republish This Story Republish our articles for free, online or in print, under a Creative Commons license.
