Our publications. In-depth insight into our work towards the Sustainable Development Goals.

This book is about the small but powerful things you can do every day to help create a kinder, fairer, and more caring world.Welcome to Thando and Freddy’s big adventure with Nelson Mandela. Nelson Mandela, lovingly known as Tata Madiba, believed that every child matter and that each of us has the power to make a difference through kindness, courage, respect, and helping others.Madiba believed in the spirit of Ubuntu, meaning “I am because we are.” Ubuntu teaches us that we are all connected, and when we care for others, support one another, and treat people with kindness and respect, we help build a stronger world.This book connects Madiba’s values to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs are 17 goals that countries around the world created to make life better for everyone by protecting our planet, improving health and education, reducing poverty, promoting peace, and making sure no one is left behind.You may be wondering: “What do these big global goals have to do with me?” The answer is: a lot! The SDGs are not only for adults. Children can help too. A kind word, helping someone, protecting nature, or speaking up for fairness are all ways you can create change.Your voice matters, and you do not have to be grown up to make a difference. Together, through kindness and unity, we can continue Madiba’s journey and help build a better world one small action at a time.Inside these pages, you will find inspiring words, lessons, and ideas that show how you can help build a fairer, cleaner, kinder, and more peaceful world.Together, let us continue Madiba’s journey, one act of kindness at a time.
