Little Issue Video!

Welcome to the Little Issue YouTube channel, powered by Fondation Ipsen and the Bright Future Trust! We are proud to share the creations of our young, qualified animators, made specifically to enrich young minds around the world.

Each animated lesson segment is inspired by the content found in our government curriculum-aligned quarterly magazine for 6 – 9-year-olds, and purposely crafted to appeal to young learners We will be uploading at least one lesson segment per quarter.

The Little Issue magazine can be purchased from on-street Big Issue SA vendors in Cape Town, or at selected Spar, PicknPay and CNA stores outside of Cape Town. Anyone can purchase the magazine online at www.magzter.com. Every issue is available as a PDF for free download from www.littleissue.org.za.
