What is Spirit of Youth?
The Spirit
of Youth programme is a forum in which 11th and 12th grade learners critically
engage on relevant issues that they may better define and actuate the South
Africa in which they would like to live.
Learners are selected on the criteria that each has distinguished her- or himself as a leader in their school community. The expectation is that these young people are likely to have a disproportionally high impact on their immediate peers and society-at-large.
The programme brings together learners from a myriad of social, economic, geographical and educational experiences with policymakers and businesspersons from across Gauteng. Our aim is that this year-long discourse will develop new understanding of the South African context and its possibilities.
