CROSS-IMPACT AREA/ SOCIAL JUSTICE

We believe that true progress is only possible when everyone has an equal chance to thrive. Too often, systemic barriers prevent individuals and communities from accessing the opportunities they deserve. At United Way South Africa, we are committed to breaking down these barriers and creating pathways for equity and justice.

United Way South Africa champions equity.

Our work focuses on building diverse, inclusive, and safe communities where every person is valued and empowered. This means tackling the root causes of inequality, addressing discrimination, and standing firm against injustices such as human trafficking and human rights violations.

Equity is not just a principle we uphold it is the foundation of all that we do. 

Our key focus areas:

• Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)
• Gender Based Violence (GBV)
• Anti-Human Trafficking

By fostering collaboration and driving meaningful change, we strive to create a South Africa where every individual, regardless of their background, can live with dignity, opportunity, and hope.
