Azishe - Ke: Opportunity Knocks

Azishe Ke: Opportunity Knocks! consisted of 13 episodes broadcast on Saturday mornings on SABC 2. The core content included different projects that the government had launched in an effort to change people's lives. It featured real stories of initiatives in which people have been trained to do different jobs and received helped in starting businesses. The government hoped thereby to work with media to reach more people, especially the economically poor, and to show them how they can take advantage of government-created opportunities to improve their lives.
Specifically, the programme showed what Expanded Public Works Programme projects like Working for Water and road construction can do to empower people. It also looked at government support for black-owned hotels, promotion of small business opportunities through the Umsobomvu Youth Fund, gender and women's empowerment, the National Development Agency, and the School Nutrition Programme.
