More information

 

Ilitha Labantu is a social service and educational organization with a specific focus on addressing violence against women and children and supporting those affected by it. This is accomplished through individual and family counseling, workshops, skills training and empowerment, and acting as a trusted advisor in government and community processes. The client base is particularly focused amongst women living in townships and rural areas of South Africa. Ilitha Labantu is committed to empowerment through education and participatory practices. Ilitha Labantu has been operating for over twelve years in greater Cape Town. The organization was established after it became clear that the problem of violence against women and children represented a critical obstacle to development in township communities.
