IBUYAMBO YAMAMPONDOThe
Ibuyambo YamaMpondo is a
cultural heritage festival held in
South Africa that focuses on
Mpondo culture, not only as tradition, but as a
tool for the future. It’s not an event designed to look back, but to
connect identity and personal growth, especially among young people.
The festival’s main goal is to
empower young people, helping them make
informed decisions about their lives, their bodies, and their role within the community. Through
education, values such as
self-love,
respect, and
responsibility are reinforced, always from a cultural and collective perspective.
During the event,
traditional ceremonies, educational activities,
music festivals, and contests like
Miss & Mr Inkciyo take place, aiming to create
positive role models and promote
self-esteem,
leadership, and
social commitment.
