We focus on one specific community in South Africa with high levels of HIV infection, poverty and social exclusion. Here, despite availability of antiretroviral therapies, lives are still being lost to AIDS

At the heart of the community, the MADaboutART centre provides a safe space where children have fun learning and begin their path to a brighter future

Many young people living in poverty around the world experience anger and low self-esteem; trapped in a spiral of vulnerability that destroys hope

Pioneered in South Africa, our interactive curriculum uses art to tell stories and change lives. Children learn by doing. Older children teach younger ones. Gaining confidence. Building skills. Finding hope

CHILDREN MAKE POSITIVE CHANGES IN THEIR OWN LIVES WHICH IN TURN TRANSFORM THEIR COMMUNITY

Independent evaluation showed MADaboutART has a significant positive impact on children’s well-being. For children this means feeling good about themselves, having hope for the future and feeling loved.
