DIRCO Minister, Dr Naledi Pandor is in Zimbabwe, today - Africa Day, 25 May 2021, to officially hand over, on behalf of South Africa, the first consignment of aid that SA is providing to the people of Zimbabwe who were affected by severe flooding in 2019 (Cyclone Idal). 
The consignment is being received by His Excellency, the President of the Republic of Zimbabwe, Emmerson Mnangagwa, on behalf of the people of Zimbabwe at the State House in Harare, Zimbabwe.
In March 2019, South Africa responded to an appeal from the Zimbabwe Government for humanitarian assistance in response to infrastructure destruction and loss of human life caused by severe flooding brought by #CycloneIdai.
1.Anthropology needs to shift how it tells stories. #digitalnatives do not read nor think as earlier generations. This is to be embraced, not feared. This is a Twitter Essay on one way to begin (1/16). @AmEthno @AmericanAnthro @ASnA_Editors @ASAUK_News @africanstudies
@AmEthno @AmericanAnthro @ASnA_Editors @ASAUK_News @africanstudies 2. My book From ‘Water to Wine’ is the first “ethnography of a digital native for digital natives”. Growing up in the last gasps of #apartheid #SouthAfrica we had dial-up, and change everywhere (2/16). 3. utorontopress.com/us/from-water-… @annebracken @TeachingCulture @abenaopp
@AmEthno @AmericanAnthro @ASnA_Editors @ASAUK_News @africanstudies @annebracken @TeachingCulture @abenaopp 3. I learned to think within #multilingualism and #changingdiscourses. My book tracks across #Brazil, #Angola, #Mauritius, #Portugal, #SA, the #USA . It is political. It is about change. It is about beauty in Angola and writing through whiteness (3/16). @StanfordAnthro @UCT_news

The #Earth has already warmed by more than 1 °C due to #ClimateChange. Looking at our common home from space, we can witness the impacts in real-time. Thread. 1/10 🌎
We see that #wildfires are becoming more frequent and intense, like here in California. 2/10

Thread: #PledgeIdai team spent the weekend on the ground in Chimanimani & we will sharing some of our experiences in the following days. The team visited 2 of the most affected areas Ngagu & Kopa. We were met by the @HigherLifeFDN team of volunteers who have on the ground
...since #CycloneIdai devastated Chimanimani & Chipinge. Before heading out we were given an update by @LovemoreNyatsin from the @econetzimbabwe group who has been heading operations.
After the debrief with @LovemoreNyatsin we headed to Ngangu one of the areas affected the most by #CycloneIdai. This was a residential area where several families lived, most are either dead or missing & their homes have been reduced to rubble.
We spent the week in #Zimbabwe finding out how your food donations get to those who need them. Food parcels are dropped off by helicopters. #CycloneIdai #TheNextMile 1/6
#Thread: Local volunteers in the affected areas are ready to offload the helicopters & sort through donations. #CycloneIdai #TheNextMile 📸 @tatendamapigoti
3/6 Helicopters can't land in some areas dues to rocks & debris, so residents make bridges from fallen trees & wire to get to food distribution points. 📸 @tatendamapigoti #CycloneIdai #TheNextMile
EMERGENCY UPDATE: Our emergency teams of doctors, nurses, pharmacists and psychologists, have arrived in #Beira, #Mozambique in order to provide humanitarian assistance to the thousands of people affected by #CycloneIdai.
Their aim is to help the population affected by #CycloneIdai, strengthening the capacity of local health actors in the provision of primary healthcare for those desperately in need.
