On 30 March 2007, the CVM and the Sekwanele Youth Organization launched the DVD, Sekwanele Youth Organization: A Vehicle for Youth Empowerment at UKZN's Edgewood campus. The DVD, created in partnership with the CVM, showcases the work of Sekwanele and champions the group's commitment to community empowerment and youth talent in the field of performing arts. Thirty members of Sekwanele, from the youngest and newest members to veteran leaders, came together to view the DVD and to plan for the future of Sekwanele, which we know will be bright!

The Centre for Visual Methodologies has been working closely with the Sekwanele Youth Organization for the past two years. The group has participated in many of the Centre’s youth-related activities in Vulindlela (for example, participatory video making workshops, documentary filmmaking, and the Putting People in the Picture symposium). Sekwanele is a non-profit organization working in the Mariannhill and surrounding areas targeting youth. Sekwanele in English means "It is Enough!" The group aims to:

• develop youth talents in the field of performing arts;
• empower the community with relevant skills to fight poverty, unemployment and social instabilities, through community development projects;
• supervise musical groups during events and campaigns.

Sekwanele's vision is to uphold and promote principles of community arts, to develop youth talent, and to provide community awareness through the arts in the service of building communities free from social instabilities.
