As Africa grapples with high levels of violence, a growing movement is calling for a shift toward addressing root causes. The Heartlines Fathers Matter campaign highlights the critical role of fathers and male role models in shaping children’s emotional development and preventing violence ...early.

Themba Dlamini, author of Village Boy: A Memoir of Fatherlessness, says violence often begins long before it turns physical, rooted in unresolved emotions, absent guidance, and a lack of positive role models.

He joins @MphoKSithole to discuss.
