Free State Arts and Culture hosts Social Cohesion Summit in Welkom, 7 Jun

Social Cohesion Summit

The Free State Department of Sport, Arts, Culture and Recreation has noted with great concern the recent outcry of our society as a result of the continuous acts of women and children abuse across our country and our province. Believing that the abuse of women and children is a societal problem, the department has taken a decision to convene a Social Cohesion Church Leaders Summit.

The objective of the summit is to create an opportunity for all sectors to present their programs and campaigns that focus on combating the abuse of women and children. This summit will receive presentations from pastors, community leaders, and government officials.

The summit is a follow-up of the Prayer Session that was recently convened in Welkom and led by MEC Mathabo Leeto. Details of the Summit are as follows:

Date: 7 June 2017 (Wednesday)
Venue: Kingdom Ministries, Welkom (Dagbreek)
Time: 7h00 – 17h00
Dress code: (Gentlemen – Black suit, white shirt, and red tie)

(Ladies – All black, red doek or red scarf)

“We should at all times seek to promote our national identity and protect the rights of vulnerable citizens towards achieving the goal for a social cohesive nation. The unity of all South Africans is sacrosanct in defeating the patriarchal patterns that are still found in many quarters of our society” said MEC Mathabo Leeto.
