On June 29, ambassadors of the foundation woke up to a chilly morning, ready to debate, give opinions and share their solutions on a topic that leaves most people uncertain about their future and drenched in worry, sometimes resulting in depression.
The topic of the debate was ‘Re-imagining our future: youth voices on life beyond Covid-19’.
“As ambassadors, we firmly believe that ‘an idle mind is the devil’s playground’. This is why we are always trying to keep the youth out of the streets and their minds active. Our aim is to engage in more relevant educational activities to foster a truly smart African generation. During the coronavirus pandemic, our in-person interactions have been limited and this is why we were excited to join new virtual platforms to continue our engagement with the rest of South Africa,” said Unyaka Wakho Youth Foundation Ambassadors founder Deborah Gamede.
