In commemoration of the International Day of the Girl Child, we put together an Open Mic session with the theme 'My Voice, Our Equal Rights'.
We were able to shortlist a group of immensely talented aspiring poets, writers and singers of all ages who shared how they see the world through their poems, writings and songs.

The key takeaway from the session was that its important to envision ourselves in leading positions and only then can we overcome our fears and make our place in the world.

Valentines Day gives us the opportunity to remind or re-educate ourselves on how to spot the signs of a toxic relationship.

On the whole, relationships are good for us and, for most of us, are central to living a good life, but that’s not true of all relationships.
