The eThekwini Municipality will launch the One Man Can Campaign on Thursday the 23rd June 2011 at City Hall. This campaign in partnership with SABC UKhozi FM, aims at creating awareness on men’s responsibilities. It also highlights men as important stakeholders in economic uplifitment and their role as protectors, providers and pillars of the society. The Deputy City Manager of Governance, Mr Sipho Cele says, the Municipality decided to embark on this campaign to ensure that men’s concerns are also addressed.<\/p>\n
“In most of the activities and programmes that are run in our communities, women are actively involved. Men are hardly seen in developmental activities due to various reasons which are known to them, he said.”The programme will also highlight other activities that the Municipality is involved in through the Mens Forum which encourages men to participate and be involved in women empowerment programmes, and assisting them to understand gender transformation issues.<\/p>\n
The City will also celebrate men’s month in July through various programmes. The day will be filled with rich presentations from various stakeholders who will touch on issues such as Gender Equality and why men should be involved in Gender mainstreaming, the importance of men taking care of their health and issues pertaining to child maintenance amongst a host of issues.<\/p>\n
Speaker Cllr Logie Naidoo, will grace the event and will be accompanied by Pastor Vusi Dube (MPL), Deputy City Manager, Mr Sipho Cele and Mfanozelwe Shozi from the Commission on Gender Equality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
