Victoria Mxenge and the Peace Lelies Project

On Tuesday Backchat spoke to Patricia Matolengwe from Victoria Mxenge and Peace Lelies Project.
We spoke about how these women learned about every aspect of building.
An inspirational demonstration of women in action, this project shows what a group of homeless women achieved through their own initiative.
After starting a joint savings scheme through the Home’s Peoples Federation, the women designed and constructed their homes.

We also spoke to Elsie Naidoo from Healthy Heritage African Renaissance Jazz Festival about their upcoming jazz festival, which will be held as part of Heritage Month. The Healthy Heritage African Renaissance Festival aims to preserve, exhibit and promote the diverse musical heritage of South Africa, but it is also an opportunity to encourage South Africans to become more aware of the long term consequences of HIV and AIDS on both an individual and economic level.
