Help us replace shame with knowledge, silence with support, and fear with playful learning.

Too many young people grow up without the knowledge they need about their bodies, minds and relationships.

Adults feel unprepared. Taboos keep everyone silent. The cost of inaction is too high. We are breaking the silence.

Global Problems

Millions suffer and billions are lost because mental and sexual health education is ignored.

Help us to break taboos

Mental and sexual health are essential, but still treated as taboo. There isn’t enough open, accurate or age-appropriate education. Adults feel awkward. Young people feel ashamed. Questions go unanswered.

The Result

Confusion. Shame. Preventable harm. Unplanned pregnancies. STIs. Abuse. Mental health crises.
Not because young people don’t care, but because we don’t teach them. They need clear, honest and accessible education. Silence is costing lives.

Youth Advisory Board

A group of inspiring young people who are actively shaping Love Land. Youth-led and built for real impact.

Formally established in December 2025, the Love Land Youth Advisory Board brings together young people with deep, lived experience of the programme and their communities in Langa, Cape Town.

It was created to move beyond one-off youth consultations toward something more meaningful: defined roles, clear time commitments, safeguarding protocols, and portfolio responsibilities that ensure young people are genuine contributors rather than passive advisors.

What the Youth Advisory Board Does

Review

Reviews content cultural relevance, language accessibility, and ethical safeguarding.

Refine

Refines scripts and facilitation language.

Create

Co-creates Love Land tutorial videos.

Shape

Shapes how sensitive topics are communicated using lived experience and insights.

Identify

Identifies gaps and misconceptions, driving content improvements.

Market

Contributes to marketing and social media, building their own digital communication skills.

Looking Ahead

The Youth Advisory Board will expand as Love Land grows.
Future phases expect to support new pathways for young people to become peer trainers and youth facilitators, creating formal employability and income-generating opportunities.

It will continue to guide content relevance, cultural adaptation, and emerging youth priorities as Love Land scales across South Africa and the broader Pan-African region.
