İş Tanımı
2025 marks the 48th anniversary of the June 16 Soweto and other related uprisings. The Soweto uprising ended tragically with hundreds of young people brutally killed. This tragedy became a rallying point that inspired a nation and a people to rise up against the brutal apartheid system.
Following the advent of democracy in 1994, the new democratic government declared 16 June as National Youth Day and June as Youth Month.
Type of Work:
Youth Awareness Month focuses on sports and cultural activities, providing a platform to recognize the role of youth in South African society.

• Creating and using objects that will facilitate engagement with children.
