South Africa Youth Month Competition 2023

The National Youth Development Agency NYDA is organizing a competition for South African Youths to win prizes in preparation for the 2023 Youth Month which is celebrated on June 16 every year.

2023 marks the 47th 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. This year National Youth Day and Youth Month will be celebrated under the theme: “Accelerating youth economic emancipation for a sustainable future”.
