Towards the end of 2019, two friends (Olive & Casey) were discussing a shared disheartenment over the lack of conversation around the safety of South Africa's women and children after Cyril Ramaphosa declared gender-based violence a national crisis. Instead of wallowing, they checked their privilege and decided that there were other actions they could take with their resources, which would also make a lasting impact. Olive and Casey invited me onboard to co-facilitate and design a brand identity.
In July 2020, In Progress launched.
We meet (online) every month to reflect and discuss content (films, articles, podcasts, music, art, etc.) that we as the ‘facilitators’ curate and share prior to our meet ups. From politics to pop culture, worldly topics to self-care, In Progress has grown into a safe space for healthy discourse - a space we discovered a lack of access to because of the pandemic.
