NSFAS is costing young people their futures and their mental health. we are taking a stand on NSFAS, by urgently calling for the appointment of a new NSFAS Board and a clear plan for overcoming its current crises.

South Africa’s dropout and youth unemployment crises cannot be separated. As more and more young people are excluded from employment, education or training opportunities, it can lead to continued cycles of poverty in our communities and associated consequences such as dropout. To break these cycles, we need to take drastic and collective action to educate and support our youth

Tackling the issue of youth unemployment as a mobiliser allows me a glance into the lives of young people within my community, and together we are able to find solutions and overcome the unique challenges we face.
