A Dream Realised: The Challenges and Triumphs of Building a Mandela Legacy

A Dream Realised: The Challenges and Triumphs of Building a Mandela Legacy

Graça Machel
0/5 ( ratings)

The Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital was a project that seemed impossible when it was merely an idea. The seed took root when 10 people sat around a table discussing the state of paediatric care in South Africa – a discussion sparked by the recent passing of a five year old boy. These people shared similar experiences that all pointed to the fact that devoted specialist care was needed for children.

Madiba set the challenge with a simple question: “How can there be only one dedicated hospital in the country for our children?"

This challenge provided the starting point that resulted in a global campaign that would impact the most vulnerable and often voiceless members of our society.

From a small seed taking root so began a remarkable story of a children’s hospital built in the name of one of the world’s greatest leaders.

Now, the stories behind the building of one of the finest paediatric facilities on the African continent can be told for the first time in a new book, with a foreword by Justice Yvonne Mokgoro and an introduction by Mrs Graça Machel.

The tales are personal, emotional and sometimes heart-breaking. But ultimately, they are all filled with passion and inspiration.

Today, the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital in Johannesburg is a proud testimony to a uniquely African story which honours the memory of a great statesman and celebrates the children for whom he cared so deeply.
