Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana announced the extension of the grant during his presentation of the Medium Term Budget Policy Statement in Parliament on Wednesday afternoon. “The SRD grant was introduced in May 2020 as a temporary measure to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable, who were affected by [COVID-19 induced] lockdown measures.

Assess how you, as a young person, could use social media to promote respect for the different rights in the Bill of rights.
Young people can use social media to promote respect for the Bill of Rights by sharing information, engaging in conversations, and taking action.


  • Educate yourself: Before promoting respect for the different rights in the Bill of Rights, you need to have a clear understanding of what they are and what they entail. Research and read up on the Bill of Rights so that you can speak knowledgeably about it.



  • Use social media platforms to raise awareness: Social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok are excellent tools for spreading awareness about human rights issues. Use your platform to share educational content, news articles, and personal stories that highlight the importance of the different rights in the Bill of Rights.



  • Engage with your followers: Encourage your followers to engage with your content and share their own perspectives on human rights issues. Respond to comments and messages, and use social media as a platform for dialogue and discussion.



  • Collaborate with other activists: Social media has made it easier than ever to connect with other activists and like-minded individuals. Look for opportunities to collaborate with others who are working to promote respect for the different rights in the Bill of Rights.


  • Use your voice to advocate for change: Finally, use your platform to advocate for change. Call on your followers to take action by signing petitions, donating to organizations that support human rights, or contacting their elected officials to voice their concerns. Remember, every voice matters, and social media can be a powerful tool for promoting positive change.
