Celebrating Africa Day – 25 May

This Monday is Africa Day and MUSASA has invited all students and staff members to join in the festivities and celebrate with the Monash family.
 
 
Craig Rowe, the director of engagement at Monash, has encouraged everyone via email to dress up in any (African or other international) traditional clothes or accessories and take a "selfie" with MUSASA at the special African themed backdrop that will be set up in Lekgotla Square. He has also urged everyone to remember to share the pictures taken on Facebook and Instagram using the hashtags #AfricaDay #Monash_SA and to tag the MSA Facebook page for all to see.

The photo-booth will be open from 10:00 to 14:00 in Lekgotla Square and JCI (Junior Chamber International) and AIESEC will be hosting a talk on the Social Entrepreneurship in the 21st Century African Context from 15:30 to 17:00 in Lecture Theatre 7.

The talk is aimed at enlightening and equipping future leaders in communities as well as the business world. Tshepo Thlaku, the CEO and Founder of an ICT and Training company, and the 2015 President of the Africa and Middle East Development Council (AMDEC) will be speaking to students alongside many other student leaders.

Craig Rowe adds, “More Africa Week activities will be taking place on campus from the 25th to the 29th of May so keep your ears open and join us in proudly celebrating our diverse campus.
