On 18 March 2021, Grow Great and its partners from CoCare, Violence Prevention through Urban Upgrading, Embrace and Amandla.mobi held an interactive virtual conference on the findings of the CoCare Report.

The CoCare report furthermore shows the urgent need for the prioritization of a maternal support grant.
