Middelburg boys assemble to champion change in their communities

Middelburg boys’ assembly empowers future community leaders.

The Mpumalanga Boys’ Assembly was held to promote positive behaviour among teenage boys and to raise awareness around HIV/Aids, gender-based violence and femicide.

It provided a safe and supportive platform where young leaders reflected on their journeys and shared the impact of their initiatives to inspire others.

The gathering took place at the Adelaide Tambo Hall in Mhluzi, Middelburg, on Wednesday, June 25. It was organised by the Mpumalanga Department of Social Development, the Mpumalanga Aids Council and various stakeholders under the theme, “Claiming My Place in Creating a Safe and Healthy Community.”
