Coe-Human September Newsletter
Heritage Day is a public holiday that is celebrated annually on the 24th of September, to commemorate cultural diversity, traditions and heritage in South Africa, which is a symbol of a rainbow nation. With over 60 million people, this population expresses its cultural identity through language, food, music, and dance. Heritage month not only brings focus to South Africa’s rich and diverse cultural heritage, but it has an immense contribution to the country’s social, economic, health, education and scientific wellbeing particularly rural, township and peri-urban communities.
