LET ROOIBOS BRIGHTEN UP YOUR FESTIVE SUMMER SEASON SPREAD
With the festive season in full swing, Rooibos is finding new life across the summer table – from chilled drinks to flavour-packed starters, mains and desserts. Once a familiar comfort, it’s now proving itself to be one of the season’s most versatile ingredients.

Award-winning cookbook author and independent health-focused food consultant, Heleen Meyer, has been experimenting with Rooibos in recipes for years. She says its popularity in cooking is not surprising.

How I’m raising my son to be gentle in an ungentle world

I have not always cared about men’s mental health. I grew up and live in a world shaped by patriarchy. A world where power, violence, entitlement and history tilt overwhelmingly toward men. As a gay woman and feminist, I’ve often seen masculinity as something to resist, critique, or dismantle, not something to nurture. But life has a way of complicating our most confident theories. I am raising a son.

Spending a day with cherries
Summer brings many joys – long, warm days, a more outdoorsy lifestyle, and a renewed sense of freedom and energy. All we need to add is a cherry on top. Fortunately, summer is also the season for stone fruit, and South Africa happens to produce a splendid variety of locally grown, top-quality cherries. These glossy, jewel-like fruits add vibrant colour, flavour, and a celebratory feel to our summer tables.

His early years were spent serving in government clinics and hospitals, as well as providing outreach care to rural communities.

Through BIC’s Global Education Week, I’m honoured to pay it forward to Lizalise — a bright, ambitious student from Khayelitsha who embodies the power of education to transform lives. Every child deserves the tools to dream bigger and go further, and this pack is a small step toward helping her do just that.

Putting the Power of Learning in Learners’ Hands During Global Education Week

For millions of South African children, crowded classrooms, and limited resources continue to hold back a generation of learners. BIC continues to champion education by supporting learners, teachers, and communities to ensure access to quality learning so that, despite the challenges, children have the tools and support they need to reach their full potential.

Rewriting the boy code to raise healthier men

Across South African cultures, boys are still being taught that the right way to be a boy is to suppress emotions like sadness and fear, mask their pain and grapple with life’s challenges all by themselves. This is integral to the traditional ideology of masculinity which regards demonstrations of stoic silence, dominance, intimidation and aggression as “strength”. By contrast, boys displaying qualities such as empathy, kindness and collaboration are seen as showing weaknesses that are only acceptable in girls and women.

WHY ROOIBOS IS THE UNOFFICIAL FUEL OF SA’s OCEAN ENDURANCE ATHLETES

With the open-water season now underway, endurance swimmers are gearing up to test their limits once more – facing icy swells, strong currents and unpredictable weather. As they take on South Africa’s toughest stretches, from Dassen Island to False Bay, Rooibos is emerging as an unlikely performance ally. Long seen as a comfort drink, research suggests its unique antioxidant makeup can help manage oxidative stress, enhance hydration and aid recovery.
