Why Skills Forge?

South Africa's youth unemployment crisis is no secret. The numbers are staggering: over 70% of 15-24 year olds are without work, and more than half lack the skills to enter the workforce. This isn't just a statistic – it's a reality that affects families, communities, and the very fabric of our society.


As we grapple with the complexities of this issue, one thing becomes clear: the status quo is unsustainable. We cannot afford to leave an entire generation behind, relegated to the sidelines of economic participation. The consequences would be catastrophic – not just for the individuals involved, but for our collective future.


This is where initiatives like Skills Forge come in – youth development programs designed to bridge the gap between potential and opportunity. But why do we need programs like this? What's missing from the equation, and how can we work together to create a brighter future for South Africa's youth?


Let's explore these questions together and let's LEARN - BUILD - GROW - TOGETHER
