On behalf the Siyakhula Living Lab rural communities and university researchers, I would like to humbly thank the presence of attendees from national, provincial and local government, industry, academia and other entities, at the celebration in Dwesa. The huge turnout, support and vibrancy (in the rain and cold) meant quite a lot to us.

Some online articles so far are available at the following links:

• Friday 26 April, in Grocott's Online;
• Thursday 25 April, in the Daily Dispatch;
• Saturday 20 April, in the Weekend Post, and then re-featured on the Rhodes University website;
• Thursday 18 April in ITWeb

We have loaded a subset of the event photographs here

kind regards
