By presenting this information to you and bringing you different voices, the intention is to create a picture of the situation at hand, and to inspire and create a sense of responsibility among men. Here with this podcast it is understood that one upload may not result in the overhauling changes in the country, but it is the beginning and is a way in which I believe we can create a new culture and path for those coming after us, and benefit the future generations through shared vision.I would like to thank all that contributed in the making, Nkanyezi and Donnee and It is understood how sharing their opinion may not have been easy, but without the input of females, i would be doing a disservice with this episodeBelow will be many different resources used in the process of developing this episode, and also resources that will further help you understand and become involved if you so choose.
