A Scientology TV Network “VOICES FOR HUMANITY“ weekly series presenting heroic change makers from a variety of faiths, cultures and nations working to uplift their communities, recently announced a new episode featuring human rights activist from Mpumalanga, Clement Manfouo to millions of viewers across the globe.
Coming from South Africa where a crime is committed every 16 seconds, Clement has seen all while growing up in this unstable environment. With many youths in his community finding themselves navigating the path to adulthood without a clear-cut concept of right and wrong, Clement decided to act and bring Human Rights to his besieged community in Mpumalanga.
To counter this pervasive moral decline, Clement has been spearheading a movement to restore dignity and respect by bringing the message of Youth for Human Rights to young people living in some of the nation’s poorest and most dangerous neighborhoods.
Originally born in Cameroon, he was inspired by the story of Nelson Mandela’s transformative impact on South Africa from an early age. It was his dream to be a part of that history. Tragedy struck him at just 10 years old, Clement was taken by his older brother and forced into a life of domestic servitude for 10 years. It wasn’t until he was a young adult that he would finally break free, starting a new life in South Africa. But there he grew concerned about the rampant crime and lack of respect for human dignity in the poorer neighborhoods of his province of Mpumalanga.
“I was deeply concerned and wanted to prevent many children from going through what I went through and I was on a constant search for solutions to make human rights a reality,” said Clement.
Seeking a way to counter the societal decline, he discovered Youth for Human Rights and realized the importance of spreading its message. Working with schools and community leaders, Clement’s work is having a transformative impact on society. Through educating others on their human rights, Clement is not only strengthening community bonds and empowering the people of Mpumalanga, he is achieving his goal of becoming a part of South Africa’s history.
Clement Manfouo is now the Provincial Coordinator for Youth for Human Rights International in Mpumalanga, South Africa with his episode launching recently.
