The Burning Platform - Level Up

Lebogang Ramafoko on foreign funding and the political tension between donors


Listen Later

What are the real-time funding crises in South Africa, and how are they affecting vital health and social services, especially in underserved communities? In this powerful episode of Level Up, Phumi Mashigo is joined by thought-leader and social justice veteran Lebogang Ramafoko for a fearless deep dive into the state of South Africa’s NGO sector.
