Guest : Kristal Duncan-Williams | Project Lead at Youth Capital |

Youth Unemployment has been prioritized by President Cyril Ramaphosa in his State of

the Nation Address, with the launch of the Presidential Youth Employment Intervention

(PYEI) programme.

The President also admitted that Government alone cannot solve the crisis and called

on social compacts to work together to shift gears on youth unemployment.

However, even though young people face this crisis every single day, they’re seldom

included in the conversations on the topic; their ideas and views often lie in the

periphery of the discussions.
