This week, from 1 to 5 September, marks National Kidney Awareness Week. Our kidneys do an incredible amount of work behind the scenes every single day, yet many of us rarely think about them until something goes wrong.They play a vital role in keeping our bodies functioning properly, and the way we live, from what we drink and eat to how active we are, can have an impact on our kidney health. So today, we’re taking a closer look at the everyday lifestyle choices that can help us take better care of our kidneys. From hydration and alcohol to exercise and those popular “detox” products, what really makes a difference?

1. NOZINCWADI – 25 YEARS
The Nozincwadi – Mother of Books Literacy Campaign celebrates 25 years this
week, having used reading and literature to transform young lives, particularly
in under-resourced schools.
How has the campaign evolved over the past 25 years, and what impact have
you seen on the children and communities it has reached?
2. 2026 HERITAGE MONTH
Heritage Month is a time to celebrate South Africa’s diverse cultural heritage,
with this year’s theme being “Celebrating Our Living Heritage: Strengthening
the Ties That Bind Us.”
What does this theme mean in practical terms, and how can celebrating our
heritage help strengthen social cohesion and bring South Africans closer
together?
3. Did you know? INZALO YE LANGA
Inzalo ye Langa, meaning roughly “Birth of the Sun” or “Birthplace of the Sun”,
is associated with African cosmology, renewal and the spring equinox, and is
often linked to Adam’s Calendar in Mpumalanga.
What can Inzalo ye Langa teach us about how our Indigenous ancestors
understood the sun, seasons and the cycles of life?
