Abstract

The ARROWSA hub based at Bechet High School in Durban has had an exceptional start to the year of 2012. The
programme this year was to be planned around the theme of “Who am I”. This theme was explored through using
different parts of the body to define who we are as individuals and who we are as a group. In the spirit of the theme,
we used different parts of our bodies to explore the depth descriptions of who we are. The first activity that the
group participated in was the hand mapping exercise (based on the concept of body mapping started with Aids
Society Research Unit in Cape Town). This was part of using hands as a source to display aspects of oneself in the
palm, wrists and fingers of the hand.
