Unjani Clinics is an Enterprise Development initiative aimed at: Empowering black woman Professional Nurses Creating meaningful, permanent jobs and Perfecting a sustainable model for delivering primary care We aim to implement 600+ Unjani Clinic Care settings in South Africa by the end of 2030, thereby empowering in excess of 600 professional nurses, creating in excess of 2 500 new meaningful jobs and improving access to affordable healthcare to in excess of 6 million people annually. As the only nurse-led initiative and network in South Africa, this is a unique model that offers convenience, quality and affordable primary healthcare in the communities that we serve. Patients do not have the long waiting queues experienced in Government facilities, they have the convenience of walking to their local Unjani Clinic as opposed to having to take transport and they are guaranteed the medicines required to treat their diagnosis. Access to affordable primary healthcare is thus enhanced through the Unjani Clinic Network. The value proposition for our patient is convenient, accessible, affordable, quality primary healthcare services. Unlike many other international clinic models, the Unjani Clinics Network is not a private, public, partnership (PPP), it is entirely private, and the clinics receive no Government assistance (product, price or otherwise). We serve Government patients by offering them an affordable, alternative healthcare solution. With 182 Unjani ClinicCare Settings currently operational nationally in South Africa, we believe we have a proven formula for success and need to transition to scale in order to maximise our impact and achieve greater reach of the target populations; and populations in other African countries. Unjani Clinic is a network of black women owned and operated primary healthcare clinics that provide accessible, affordable and quality healthcare to communities in low income areas of South Africa. It complements the re-engineering of our healthcare system by creating community based healthcare structures at the point of need. It is an innovative model to address the inequality which exists between private and public healthcare services in our country. Whilst private and public hospitals and clinics exist there are too few to deal with the increasing healthcare burden and private healthcare is too expensive for the bulk of the population. The innovation behind Unjani Clinic is based on shifting primary healthcare tasks to Professional Nurses and the ability to leverage a highly developed and extensive private sector distribution network to ensure more people have access to quality primary healthcare and medicines. Many of the existing Nurse-led models are reliant on health department support or assistance through PPP's (Public Private Partnerships) i.e. Government has the demand and works with the private sector to deliver the requirements; Unjani Clinics are solely private, offering Government patients a choice to use an affordable, alternative model of quality care!

Wildlife ACT is a conservation organisation based in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, that focuses on on-the-ground endangered species conservation efforts, the daily monitoring of priority species within protected areas, and the management of human-wildlife conflict, and the promotion of community involvement in conservation. Of particular focus for the organisation is the critically endangered African Wild Dog and Black Rhino, as well as the six Vulture species found in South Africa - of which, several are critically endangered. Through the help of their voluntourism model, Wildlife ACT has been able to provide sustained, free professional monitoring services to more than ten Zululand protected areas for 15 years, as well as contributing endangered species management across Africa, and the restoration of North Island, Seychelles. Wildlife ACT's mission is to save our planet's endangered wildlife and wildlands from extinction. Our aim is to develop and implement innovative, ground based and sustainable conservation models that save our wildlife, protect our wilderness, and benefit our local communities. Our quest is to create inspiring connections with the wilderness, giving people pragmatic ways to support and be part of effective on-the-ground conservation work. Our promise: Real, honest conservation where it's needed most. Through strategic partnerships, sustainable funding models and developing technology: - Implement strategic monitoring and research to inform and enable effective conservation management of wildlife. - Understand the needs of surrounding communities, and develop innovative programs to facilitate socio-economic advancement. - Use Africa-centric, people oriented models to drive wild area expansion. Another essential aspect of Wildlife ACT's mandate lies at the interface of managing human-wildlife conflict and encouraging community conservation efforts. Many people living adjacent to South Africa's protected areas and national parks have only a view across the fence. Wildlife ACT understands that in order for conservation efforts to be sustainable and meaningful, these gaps need to be filled. Their Community Conservation Programme aims to encourage participation in, and strengthen peoples' understanding of, the conservation sector, showcasing the value of nature and highlighting economic opportunities in the sector.
Our Vision "To strive towards empowering others to effectively impact on the social needs of society." Our Mission "We undertake to achieve our vision through developing, mentoring, motivating, supporting, and conscientising local social development and health care initiatives that provide feeding schemes, job creation opportunities and other relevant partnerships." WE ARE A NATIONAL ORGANISATION GEARED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF ALL COMMUNITIES IN OUR COUNTRY. Poverty and unemployment are key factors that hamper progress and development in our country and we need to make a difference. In our approach to the needs of the people we do initiate feeding schemes but these are linked to skills identification and development programmes. This means we want to ensure that every person we help is able to grow and develop into a person who is able to take care of themselves as well as help others. There will always be needs, but through our projects, committed volunteers and members assisted by donations from the public we wish to stand up and be considered as a movement that provides practical help and solutions regardless of the need.
Good governance ensures accountability, fairness, and transparency throughout our social, governmental, and business systems. On the African continent, women are underrepresented at every level in the workplace, especially in senior leadership roles. According to the UN, this type of unequal treatment of women in the workplace has cost Sub-Saharan Africa approximately $105bn and has significant implications on the utilization of the continents full human capital potential and achievement of its development goals. The Boardroom Africa was borne out of these realities. We champion female leadership on a pan-African level by building a network of women leaders who collectively dispel the myth that there aren't enough qualified women to support the growth of the continent. We help build role models at the top to change the way organizations are led through our educational content. We offer a board training program for women across the continent and to date, we've trained 64+ women. We also have built a community of over 1,000 women on the continent leading change and deliver open webinars, trainings, and meetups to upskill this network. Finally, we've conducted publicly released research on 13 African countries to assess the gender gap in their companies. We want to shift the demand by ensuring society realizes the benefits of increased female participation in leadership, and create an ecosystem of women who can go into the world and inspire others.
