Delivered by the Learning and Monitoring Officer- Tsakani Rikhotso
Good day, colleagues, partners, and friends,
On this important occasion of Human Rights Day, we reflect on the essential freedoms and rights that belong to every individual—rights that form the foundation of a just and equitable society.
As the Learning and Monitoring Officer at SayPro, my role is to ensure that our work is both impactful and accountable. This means not only educating our teams and communities about human rights but also diligently tracking and evaluating how well we uphold these rights in every program, every partnership, and every initiative.
Human rights are not just values we aspire to—they are standards we must measure ourselves against every day. Through learning, we build awareness and capacity to defend these rights; through monitoring, we hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards of respect, equity, and justice.
At SayPro, we believe that real change happens when knowledge meets action, and when data drives integrity. By continuously learning from our experiences and monitoring our outcomes, we ensure that our work truly advances human dignity and leaves no one behind.
On this Human Rights Day, I urge all of us to renew our commitment to learning—not just as a formality, but as a powerful tool to empower, protect, and promote human rights for all.
Let us commit to transparency, to openness, and to constant improvement, because the rights we uphold today shape the future we build tomorrow.
Thank you for your dedication, and Happy Human Rights Day.
