the world marks a defining moment in history, Nelson Mandela’s release from
prison in 1990, a turning point that reshaped South Africa and the global
struggle for justice.

As the organisation founded by Nelson Mandela himself to protect and advance
the rights of children, the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund is uniquely placed to
move this moment beyond commemoration and into urgent, present-day
relevance.
To mark this occasion, to reflect on how the Fund has evolved over three
decades to respond to the changing realities facing children, families, and
communities, while drawing a direct line between Mandela’s release, a
powerful symbol of freedom and moral leadership and the ongoing, unfinished
work of safeguarding children’s dignity and futures today. The upcoming 30th
anniversary celebration of the existence of the Fund.
