Its Youth month in South Africa and here at Ubusha bami! We celebrate this month with the nation and learn more about communication and the youth. In this episode we speak to Dr. Khutso Mabokela who holds a PhD in Media Studies from the University of Limpopo. Dr. Mabokela is currently a lecturer at the University of Venda, She has a long history in journalism and media studies, having been part of news reporting teams for numerous publications and future journalist programs.  In 2013 she co-founded VikeMap Communications, and has spent her career in various positions including public relations, marketing and radio broadcasting, and of course academia.

We would like to thank Dr. Mabokela for generously sharing insights on adolescents and their use of media. We hope parents, guardians and community members listening are now better equipped to support them through this crazy thing called life.
