SACHED - Resource for change

SACHED – RESOURCE FOR CHANGE (1986) opens in Durban in March, 1986, at the National Education Crisis Conference. South Africa is under a State of Emergency. From the mid-1960s, SACHED, a national organisation, explored and established an alternate educational agency for transformation during the apartheid years. The film highlights SACHED’s projects twenty years later. Interviews with staff and students from the different centres in Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town, East London, Grahamstown and Pietermaritzberg reflect the different project needs of each region. These relate to tertiary education, teacher-training, trade-unions, newpapers, alternative learning materials for schools, the teenage magazine UPBEAT – and much more.

Trust for Christian Outreach & Education

Director: Nontobeko Moletshane, an ex-SACHED student

MASIFUNDISE: THE TRUST FOR CHRISTIAN EDUCATION AND OUTREACH (1989) is a community-based programme working in both rural and urban centres nationally. It began in 1983 from the ashes of The Black Consciousness Movement’s Black Community Programmes. By 1989 it had raised R5 million and had 60 employees from Kingwilliamstown to Phalaborwa, from Pietermaritzburg to Cape Town, from Thaba ‘Nchu and Botshabelo to Grahamstown. The film traces its projects in literacy, workers’ rights,
materials conscientizing students with their real history, self-help in rural areas, unemployment, teacher-training and so forth. Its inspirational staff, often detained, clarify the work involved. “Funders must be prepared to take the risk because we believe development is a process” not about “just getting results tomorrow” explains Nontobeko Moletsane, a director.
