- Description: Welcome, comrades to the New Year! In the last issue of Workers' News, I raised the point that all of us in elected positions were renewing our mandate. Now all of us, as members of SAMWU have a new mandate from Congress. We emerge out of Congress a united face which is geared to take workers struggle forward. Provinces came to Congress with different positions - through a process of open debates we managed to reach consensus on most of the discussions. This shows political maturity and cohesion. I want to look at the most critical challenges we have to face in the next three years. The credentials presented at Congress showed that we have not increased our lost membership in the past three years. We must start an organising campaign to meet the target we have set for ourselves. We need to have a programme of empowering women. We have concentrated much resources on a few leaders who are empowered already. For me that is not enough if we want to build a strong women's layer in the union , here put any information that you think is important but there is no field for it, if there isnt remove the field

- Description: Thesis (M.Phil) -- Faculty of Arts, History and Political Studies, 2001 , Conflict resolution skills are essential skills to help to transform the lives of young people whose lives have been uprooted by a predominant culture of violence pervading their communities. May die or are seriously injured daily as territorial wars are waged in correctional institutions. Most of the youths come from violent communities and either experience or are exposed to excessive violence daily. They witness patterns of conflict resolutions that they eventually practice themselves many seldom encounter situations in which alternative approaches to conflict resolution are demostrated.Those who are aware of alternatives have not able to develop the necessary tools to personally implement those altenatives. Bosasa, as a relatively new secure care institution, faces not only an enormous task of avoiding the difficulties that so many correctional institutions have experienced, but also an opportunity denied to other institutions, introducing the life skills education programmes, was an important step towards achieving this goal.The situation is further compounded by the courts and is very uncertain.many of the cases for which these young people have been arrested,however usually take months before sentencing is passed.This creates an ideal opportunity for sustained life skills education intervention and helps the careworker to better understand these youth.
