Masifunde Learner Developmment NPC is a public benefit organisation with over 15 years of experience in running development programmes for children and youth in the Nelson Mandela Bay, South Africa. Masifunde's work is driven by the vision of a united society in which everyone is empowered through high-quality education to participate pro-actively and confidently in societal issues and thereby initiating positive change in their own lives and the lives of others. Masifunde's services include high-quality programmes for learners from three to 35 years of age. Their approach always centers around the individual - for all age groups. The interventions are holistic, trying to take into account all aspects of the children and youth in their programmes: home and social environment, different forms of education, personal growth and individual talents and interests. Masifunde believes firmly in peer-education: That's why most of Masifunde's activities work towards outreach events which activate participants to share their findings within their social environment. This ensures that programmes have a community-wide footprint and contribute systematically to the creation of an active civil society within Walmer Township, the Mandela Bay and beyond. Over the past years, Masifunde has developed and successfully tested their community development models. Today, they proudly see components of their work being used as best practice and showcase examples. Their work in Walmer Township is open source and Masifunde gladly shares it with and shows it to interested stakeholders from various fields. Like-minded NGOs are most welcome to contact Masifunde to become one of many implementation and replication partner of Masifunde's programme components. Masifunde is governed by an active Board of Directors, and run by a motivated team of young professionals. Masifunde can present unqualified audits since 2009.
