Company Overview: Beginning against the odds The journey to a completed Isivivana Centre is a six-year story, from 2010 to 2016. All those years ago, the activist organisation Equal Education began investigating the possibility of acquiring land for a new, permanent home in Khayelitsha. On 9 November 2010, EE’s Operations Manager of EE, Michelle Adler, wrote to a contact seeking advice: “We are a small NGO but are growing fast into a social movement and want to look into the possibilities of buying and developing some land into an office and community centre in Khayelitsha that could possibly house a number of community organizations based here including TAC, the Social Justice Coalition and possibly one other.”
