Giyani sponsors, supports Commemoration of International Disability Day in Kanye
TSX-V-listed Giyani Metals, developer of the K.Hill battery-grade manganese project in Botswana, sponsored the 2024 Commemoration of International Disability Day in Kanye, which took place on December 3.
Giyani has commemorated this day with the community living with disabilities since 2021, it points out in a statement.
The Commemoration of International Disability Day in Kanye is organised by the Kanye District Disability Committee, to honour the UN International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD), celebrated on December 3.
The event reflected this year’s theme, “Amplifying the Leadership of Persons with Disabilities for an Inclusive and Sustainable Future”.
Giyani was the sole sponsor of the event, which took place at the Kanye Education Centre, providing school bags for all the children from Segopotso Primary School’s Special Education Unit, which supports 75 students aged seven to 18 years with diverse disabilities.
The company also provided meals and refreshments for attendees and the children.
“It is a particular honour to be the sponsor of this important day, following Giyani’s longstanding tradition of celebrating the Commemoration of International Disability Day in Kanye with the community.
“This event is a vital platform to recognise the contributions of persons with disabilities and advocate for their inclusion. We are truly proud to be supporting the community in which Giyani operates, as we continue to progress our operations ensuring that progress is inclusive and benefits all stakeholders,” says Giyani CEO and president Charles FitzRoy.
The 2024 IDPD event in Kanye emphasised the role of leadership and inclusion, advocating for the abolition of discriminatory practices and the safeguarding of rights to ensure sustainable futures for all.
