The Khanyisa Ngemfundo (Be the Light Through Education) research team is pleased to announce the launch of a series of videos, aimed at empowering educators to meet the needs of pregnant and mother adolescents. Informed by mixed methods research with adolescent mothers, educators, government stakeholders and programme implementers, and aligned with the Department of Basic Education’s Policy on Learner Pregnancy as well as an evidence-informed toolkit, these videos provide educators with necessary information on learner pregnancy, opportunities for self-reflection, and skills to generate solutions for their own unique context.
We hope these videos will be a valuable resource for educators in supporting all learners on their educational journey. Take a look at videos at the links below!
