Neftaly: Encouraging Collaborative Banner-Making Before Big Games
Neftaly, the Southern Africa Youth Project, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering youth across Southern Africa by reducing unemployment and poverty through skills development and education. Established in 2005 by Neftaly Malatjie, Neftaly operates with the mission of reducing youth unemployment and poverty by providing skills development, education, and economic opportunities. The organization has a strong presence in South Africa, with regional offices in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Pietermaritzburg, and Diepsloot.
Neftaly has initiated public art installations that honor sports reconciliation. These installations serve as powerful symbols of unity, healing, and shared identity, using the universal language of sports to bridge divides and promote understanding among diverse communities.
Through these art projects, Neftaly not only beautifies public spaces but also fosters dialogue and collaboration, creating lasting impressions that inspire collective action and solidarity.
