The Presidential Youth Engagement Initiative (PYEI) is set to host a significant event at the Belhar Sports Centre in Cape Town on the 6th of February 2024, at 14:00. This gathering aims to reflect on the impact of the initiative, celebrate the progress made, and rally support for the next phase of the PYEI. The event will provide a platform for young people to discuss political issues, share their experiences, and offer suggestions for the future of the initiative.
The PYEI is a crucial effort to address the challenges and concerns faced by young people in their political engagement. Research from Tufts University’s CIRCLE has highlighted the importance of such initiatives, as it revealed that while young people are interested in political action, they often lack support and opportunities
The PYEI seeks to bridge this gap by creating diverse pathways for young people to engage in political life and develop as voters and civic actors.
The event at the Belhar Sports Centre will feature keynote speeches, interactive workshops, and discussions, providing young people with the opportunity to connect, share ideas, and learn from each other. It will also showcase the success stories of young people who have been empowered through the initiative, serving as a testament to the progress made.
In conclusion, the upcoming event at the Belhar Sports Centre is an important moment to celebrate the progress made by the PYEI and to rally support for its next phase. It will serve as a reminder that young people’s voices matter and that their continued engagement in political life is crucial for the future of the country.
