DBST SYMPOSIUM

You are cordially invited to attend MCED’s DBST Symposium for 2013.
This year, 2013, is also the Year of Inclusion and August is also the month of the Woman!
Statistics reveals that more than 49, 000 South African girls become pregnant annually.  Of
this total, 109 girls were in Grade 3 as quoted by Dr Edwards-Meyer from “Die Burger, 5 June
2012”.  Related statistics imply similar findings. 
Given these statistics and research, the focus for the DBST will focus on learner pregnancy.
We would like to enhance an understanding of learner pregnancy specifically with regard
to policy and protocols and give you some guidance by sharing experiences with regard
to specific interventions.
The symposium will take place at Old Mutual on 30 August 2013, starting at 13:30 for 14:00
and end at 17:00.  Light refreshments will be served.
A comprehensive program is attached to provide the outline of the day.
Thanking you in anticipation.
