Youth unemployment in South Africa is a pressing issue with profound social and economic repercussions. Of the country’s 60 million population, around 3.6 million youth aged 15–24 are classified as NEETs (Not in Employment, Education, or Training). Unemployment in this age group stands at 60.8% [1]. Across Africa, youth unemployment is further exacerbated by limited job creation, outdated education systems, and inadequate infrastructure, with Africa’s youth population projected to reach 830 million by 2050 [2]. These statistics highlight the urgent need for targeted, long-term interventions for youth potential to be fully realised.
