Celebrate Nelson Mandela CAFOD hero

Nelson Mandela was President of South Africa from 1994 to He was the first black president to be democratically elected by a fair vote in South Africa.

But his journey was hard. Active campaigning to bring down the apartheid system (separating people of different races) led to his arrest. He was sentenced to life in prison in 1964.

He served 27 years before he was eventually released and could help his party to negotiate a multi-racial society, giving everyone a voice. Philip McKay, leader of BOCAP, Liberia, taking part in a radio discussion on HIV and AIDS

Yet, Nelson was famously humble, championing reconciliation and respect for all: “It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory.” A Millennium Stars footballer with a CAFOD volunteer in Liberia

He told a packed Trafalgar Square during the 2005 Make Poverty History campaign: “Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great. You can be that great generation. Let your greatness blossom.”

He has inspired thousands of young people across the globe to make the world a fairer and more peaceful place.
