Engraved on the front of each medallion are the words, "Isibindi," the name of the inspirational project in South Africa that is a Zulu word and "Dapperheid," an Afrikaans word, both of which mean "courage" in English. On each side of the medallion is an embedded star-studded diamond.
The back of each medallion is engraved with the words "Isibindi Umbumbulu," which represents a region in South Africa where the Isibindi project was first piloted.
In 2005, the Isibindi Umbumbulu project received international recognition by the Ford Foundation, in partnership with the John F. Kennedy School of Government and Harvard University as an exemplary model of innovation in reducing poverty and addressing key developmental issues of national concern.
Mia Koniver, creator and designer of Mia & Kompany, produces a line of whimsical fine jewelry that ranges from pave diamond charm bracelets to striking eveningwear pieces.
