This Women’s Month, Seriti Institute is proud to shine a light on the remarkable journey of the Bogolo bja Basadi Primary Cooperative, a women-led farming enterprise in Ga-Madiba, Mokopane. Their story is one of vision, resilience, and unity, a testament to what happens when women are empowered to lead in agriculture.

But as we celebrate innovation and inquiry, we must also reckon with the fact that many young people across the country still experience STEM as a distant concept.
When the Social Employment Fund (SEF) Phase 3 programme wrapped up in April 2025, it marked not an end, but a powerful new beginning for a group of six determined women farmers.
The Seriti TALKS is a platform that brings individuals and organisations from various backgrounds together to promote understanding and awareness and share ideas, and experiences.
