BEN Township Tour
Today we chatted with Sally Petersen from the Bicycling Empowerment Network (BEN).
This is a non profit organisation that promotes the use of bicycles in all its forms to enhance low-cost, non motorized transport and health.
With the help of BEN, local entrepreneurs are selected by communities to start up local independent bicycle dealerships (IBDs).
Second hand bicycles are then imported, refurbished and distributed by these IBDs within disadvantaged communities which promotes job creation.
For more details contact Sally Petersen at:
Pokela Road, Masiphumelele
