Youth unemployment, exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, is a “national crisis” that requires a clear focus if it is to be resolved, says Business Leadership South Africa CEO Busi Mavuso.
She says that, although the challenges that led to June 16 being marked as Youth Day – following a dramatic time in 1976 when young people took it into their own hands to stand up against the Apartheid government – are different, current challenges posed to the youth require urgent focus.
