“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world" said one time Nelson Mandela, which later became one of his most famous quotes.

He added: "The power of education extends beyond the development of skills we need for economic success. It can contribute to nation-building and reconciliation. Our previous system emphasized the physical and other differences of South Africans with devastating effects. We are steadily but surely introducing education that enables our children to exploit their similarities and common goals, while appreciating the strength in their diversity."

On July 18th, we celebrate Nelson Mandela International Day! Mandela was a human rights lawyer, a prisoner of conscience, an international peacemaker. This South African leader fought apartheid, as well as became the first Black African head of the country.
