And the energy in the room? Unmissable. Here’s a look back at some of the speakers, leaders and moments that made yesterday one to remember. 📸 Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to the conversation. The work continues.

“Does the profile of young people we have in South Africa fit the structure of the South African economy?” A critical question as our panellists unpack the gap between skills development and meaningful economic participation. With youth unemployment remaining a major challenge, the conversation is moving beyond training for training’s sake — towards creating real pathways for young people to contribute to public sector delivery, innovation and community impact. 🎤 Antoinette Young, @NEMISA_ 🎤 Bontle Lerumo, @OfficialPSETA 🎤 Ndumiso Kubheka, @NYDARSA 🎤 Dr Sanele Mlotshwa, Majuba TVET College & SACPO @Majuba_College #PSL2026 #YouthEmployment #SkillsDevelopment
