Background
46664 is Nelson
Mandela’s global HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention campaign.
The 46664 campaign began in 2002 when Mr Mandela realised that to reach the
youth of the world he needed to engage the support of the people who most appeal
to them.
46664 (four, double six, six four) was Nelson Mandela’s prison number when he
was imprisoned on Robben Island, off Cape Town in South Africa.
He was jailed in 1964 for 27 years for leading the liberation movement against
apartheid and for his impassioned stance on the rights of everyone to live in
freedom. He was prisoner number 466, imprisoned in 1964. The Robben Island
prisoners were never referred to by their names, but rather by their numbers and
year of imprisonment – hence 46664 was Mr Mandela’s number.
