Overview
Sesame Workshop is the nonprofit organization behind Sesame Street, Takalani Sesame and so much more. Sesame Street is our pioneering television show that has been helping kids grow smarter, stronger and kinder since 1969, and now reaching more than 150 countries. Sesame is a beloved household name in dozens of languages, and it means learning - and fun - in all of them. Takalani Sesame is the South African adaptation launched in 2000 and currently broadcasting on SABC, produced in partnership with the Department of Basic Education, Sanlam and Kwasukasukela. Takalani addresses a range of early childhood development needs from literacy, math, and life skills to instilling in children a greater sense of self and nurturing their readiness for lifelong learning. The TV and radio broadcast is complemented by outreach programs.
