Ottawa Crime Awareness
It was a great day for artists as they had the opportunity to showcase their talent and impress the judges during a crime awareness campaign through a talent search. This left all stakeholders and judges speechless, as it was the first talent search show in the area.
The organizer of the event, who is also the Giant Heart Director, Mr. Zenzo Shabangu, stated that this was just the beginning. Since it was their first campaign, they are planning something bigger for next year, 2025. He further mentioned that they will collaborate with other companies to sustain this event, which they aim to make an annual occurrence.
The next campaign will focus on talent clinics as the initial session, followed by live performances by well-known artists to inspire upcoming talents. As part of the rewards, some artists will also be enrolled in art schools to further develop their skills.

Kwandengezi Imbizo Crime Awareness
Giant Heart was leading an Imbizo Crime Awareness Campaign. After several meetings with stakeholders, chaired by Giant Heart Director Mr. Shabangu, they identified some loopholes in the community that made it difficult for the police to combat crime effectively. With the assistance of Constable Cele from Kwandengezi Police Station and OSS convener Mr. Mthimkhulu, they were able to gather relevant stakeholders to help establish structures aimed at reducing the crime rate. The stakeholders invited included CPF and Memeza, Ethembeni Crisis Center, Area-Based Environment, Community Participation, TBHIVCARE, Safer Cities, and others.
Human Security
The human security approach is a comprehensive methodology that allows for a broad perspective on the challenges that people and governments face. It reminds us that the challenges that the international community must address are not simple, nor can they successfully be ameliorated through separate initiatives, each assigned to a particular organization. The human security approach, however, is more than an exercise in joint programming.
