Sibulele Sibaca

It was the firm determination to de-stigmatise HIV/Aids that birthed an extraordinarily powerful and distinguished woman. Sibulele Sibaca – Nomnganga is a dynamic international speaker, social entrepreneur and health advocate with a remarkable personal story. Even though she lost both her parents to Aids when she was barely a teenager, she was determined not to be a victim of her circumstances.

Presidents Nelson Mandela and Bill Clinton, and world leaders such as Bill and Melinda Gates, Banki Moon, Kofi Annan, Phumzile Mambo Ngcuka, Joyce Banda and G20 leaders to personalities such as Brad Pitt, Alicia Keys, Bono and Patti La Belle. The list of powerful and influential people she has been privileged to address is extensive. Recently, she addressed
Senators, Congressmen and women at Capitol Hill in Washington DC to speak on the plight of Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW) in Africa. She has shared her journey at the United Nations in New York and other prestigious events such as The International Aids Conferences and conferences on gender equality and health, rights and well-being of girls and women.
