The South Africa Team
The AFS Interculture South Africa team is made up of three main groups: the first, and key to our operations, are the hundreds of volunteers in chapters around the country; second is the board of directors - responsible for the overall governance of the organisation; and third is the national office staff team based in Johannesburg.
