Global Academy: Afropolitanism, Social Justice and Social Entrepreneurship is a four-week programme designed to inspire participants to become global citizens. It connects the past to the present by discussing opportunities and challenges of transformation facing South Africa and by extension the African continent and the world today. Students will be encouraged to reflect on the values of social justice and gain insights into the interconnectivity between their societies and the rest of the world. They will also look at ways in which they could contribute to building cultures of equality. 



Visits to historical, heritage and entrepreneurial community sites will allow students to experience the vibrant and diverse cultures that influence and shape the character of Cape Town and South Africa. These activities will also allow students to see innovative initiatives that communities are undertaking to seek solutions to social issues.
