This year, the biggest award that is given to the overall Shero is named after the mother of the nation, the late Mama Winnie Madikizela Mandela Award. This award seeks to honour a phenomenal and courageous woman who has risen above societal issues, a strong character who has demonstrated leadership abilities at various levels.
