Khayelitsha Township – Crafting Empowerment

During a field program students visited Khayelitsha, South Africa’s fastest growing township, to get a glimpse of Social Entrepreneurship in action. In addition to visiting the Khayelitsha Craft Market, where entrepreneurs craft goods out of recycled and local materials, they visited the Philani Nutrition Centre where locals create beautiful weavings, silkscreen paintings and other goods to help support health and nutrition in the township. Join Nathi Gigaba, a guide with Cape Town Township Tours, as he educates us on how Khayelitsha is crafting empowerment.
