OUR FERTILE GROUND

Sibu Zulu

 

Sibu is an HIV activist and a Postgraduate student at the University of Cape Town pursuing Disability Studies. Her educational background in Youth Development and psychology as well as her current educational path make her a perfect fit to Fertile Grounds mission and mandate.

 

While furthering her education Sibu also works at the University of Cape Town Disability Service and volunteers with Fertile Ground. Her passion for working with youth, who are struggling with disabilities and medical conditions such as HIV/AIDS and Cancer, comes naturally, as she has previously worked for the University of Stellenbosch and Love Life as a groundbreaker / peer educator.

 

After Sibu has finished her education, she hopes to apply her experience with Fertile Ground by establishing her own NGO that will work to ensure that youth from South Africa’s Townships get the chance to go on to University by instilling in them a solid work ethic and building life skills.
