Why the future of climate change solutions hinges on Stem careers







After marching to the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare in the capital, Mbabane, on Friday to deliver their ultimatum, Swaziland's nurses registered their anger with an overtime ban beginning on Monday to protest delayed pay, unsafe working conditions, and crumbling facilities.
"We must start somewhere, so we've chosen the overtime issue," said Sibusiso Lushaba, secretary-general of the Swaziland Nurses Association (SNA). "As workers we have decided not to work the extra hours, as it is our right not to do so. This is not a strike; we have played our part as workers, but the employer does not want to meet their obligation."
