Masks have become an essential item in the country’s efforts to curb the spread of Covid-19 and the Umoja skills development project is throwing its weight behind raising awareness of the importance of wearing them.
Umoja, a refugee development project, has partnered with the Activist Education and Development Centre (AEDC) and Movement for Change Social Justice (MCSJ) to teach Gugulethu residents about the importance of having a mask and wearing it at all times.
They also handed over 10 000 masks to the community at Elukhanyisweni Sports Complex in Gugulethu on Tuesday June 9.
