As the nation remembers the historic events of 16 June 1976 and the courage of the young students who stood up to injustice, it is important to acknowledge the initiatives that continue to empower and uplift South Africa's youth.
The Youth Network for Sport, Development and Peace is a group of determined young professionals with a mission to provide specialised programming services and create a space for youth to gain experience and have a voice through mentoring, training and collaboration. The group uses sport as a vehicle to deliver essential life skills, career development and soft skills needed for youth success.
The network originated from the 1st African Youth Forum on Robben Island in 2018 and now consists of executive committee members, youth sports leaders and youth from around the world. Its objectives include understanding, advocating for and promoting sports and Olympic values as tools for development, social change and peace among youth and young adults.
It focuses on community and society, aiming to create networks, partnerships and cooperation while facilitating personal growth, education and training and using sport for social change and peace.Explore Cape Town and its surroundings with these incredible deals on cars for under 100K.
The organisation empowers youth to collaborate with private entities, civil society organisations and local governments, promoting the establishment of Codebridge Youth Forums. These forums play a pivotal role in fostering partnerships that enable young individuals to actively contribute to problem-solving and community development initiatives.
In addition to creating platforms for collaboration, Codebridge Youth organises engaging youth-led events that not only expand the community of young individuals involved, but also promote active public participation. These events serve as catalysts for growth, igniting the collective efforts of youth actors to make a meaningful and lasting impact on their communities and society at large.
