MEDIA INVITATION


AMAJUBA DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY WOMEN’S GALA DINNER
EMPOWERED WOMEN, EMPOWER NATIONS

24 August 2026

Amajuba District Municipality invites members of the media to join us as we celebrate the women who inspire, lead, nurture and strengthen our communities.

As part of Women’s Month, Amajuba District Municipality will host a Women’s Gala Dinner under the theme: “Empowered Women, Empower Nations.”

The evening will celebrate women and create a meaningful platform for conversation, awareness, empowerment and action around issues that affect women and communities.

The Gala Dinner will place a special focus on Gender-Based Violence (GBV), women’s health and economic empowerment, while encouraging women to use their voices, support one another and become catalysts for positive change.

For Amajuba District Municipality, empowering women is not only about celebrating their achievements, it is about creating opportunities, amplifying their voices and building an environment in which women can participate meaningfully in the development of their communities.

The event will bring together women from different sectors and backgrounds, alongside leaders and stakeholders, to share experiences, inspire one another and strengthen the call for a safer, healthier and more empowered society.

When a woman is empowered, she does not rise alone. She creates space for another woman to rise with her.
