Today is World Social Justice Day 🌍 Proclaimed by the United Nations, this international day calls for action to tackle poverty and exclusion, confront gender inequality, and ensure equal access to justice for all. At Mobilize, we’re marking the day by profiling organisations across South Africa advancing social justice; from education and food security to climate and water justice. Keep an eye on our socials to learn more about the incredible work being done, and how YOU CAN GET INVOLVED. ✊ #WorldSocialJusticeDay #SocialJusticeZA #MobilizeForJustice

The voices of @wethe99percent MUST be heard. True progress means providing healthcare that doesn’t drain families, ensuring fair food prices , creating real jobs for youth, taking urgent climate action, taxing the wealthy, and guaranteeing education for every child.

Voices from the We The 99% People's Summit Prince Tough Mupindu is advocating for approaches that turn short-term support into lasting economic opportunities, empowering people to make informed financial decisions and build resilient communities. #EconomicJustice #FinancialInd

Art speaks when systems fail to listen, and this powerful mural by Dean Hutton and CAMP says it loudly. Debt is draining the lifeblood of communities, pulling money away from clinics, classrooms, and essential services. Imagining a future where that burden is lifted isn’t radical, it’s necessary. This work is a call to action: cancel the debt, restore dignity, and redirect resources to the people who keep our societies alive. #CancelTheDebt #DebtJustice #PeoplePower #SocialJustice

At the People’s Summit, Dorina from @Greenpeace International’s Fair Share for the Planet campaign reminded us why we’re here. We’re building a ‘Billionaire Tower’ to show how extreme wealth rests on the exploitation of people and the planet and then transforming it into a vision of our shared hopes for a fair, just future. #WeThe99 #PeopleSummit #FairShareForThePlanet #TaxTheSuperRich #ClimateJusticeNow

We are rural farmers and informal workers. We are township youth and precarious migrants. We are workers, land defenders, caregivers, artists and activists. We are housekeepers, teachers, fisherfolk, miners, market traders and nurses. We are displaced people, indebted communities and overworked mothers. We are queer, trans, Black, Brown, Indigenous people from every corner of the earth, still carrying the weight of centuries of theft. And together, we rise. #WeThe99 #PeopleSummit #UprisingFestival
