Save our youth and save our future

Dr Karen Bishop. HIV Pathogenesis Programme, DDMRI. UKZN Online Newsletter. Issue 5. UKZN.
The lunch time conversation was about crime, yet again. Its so easy to complain about the lack of action taken by our government in combating crime, and yes, most of us feel that there is nothing we can do about it. Sure, we can pack up and leave, but there is obviously something that holds us here, why else are we still here? Perhaps it is because we know that our country is worth saving and we are unsure of how to go about achieving this, or maybe it is complacency and waiting for the next person to carry the load. If it is the former, then there is a way we can make a difference.
