Show Notes
South Africas Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs has established fees for customary initiation schools, varying by province. The rules aim to prevent initiation schools from becoming businesses, ensuring cultural traditions are upheld and young lives are protected. Initiates, parents, and surgeons will pay different amounts depending on the province and gender. Officials hope these standardized costs will preserve the true meaning of the rites and maintain safety and fairness.
