Deputy Minister in the Presidency, Nonceba Mhlauli, is set to deliver a keynote address at the Presidential Youth Employment Initiative (PYEI) 4th Anniversary Dialogue at University of the Western Cape. Held under the theme “The Future World of Work – Empowering Talent,” the event marks four years of collaboration between PYEI and the university in tackling youth unemployment and improving graduates’ readiness for the labour market.
The milestone event aims to reflect on progress made, strengthen partnerships, and encourage scalable solutions to address youth unemployment. Rooted in government commitments outlined in the 2018 State of the Nation Address and the National Economic Development and Labour Council Employment Summit, the initiative continues to confront the high unemployment rate among young people aged 15 to 34, who make up a significant portion of South Africa’s working-age population.
