Show Notes
South Africas Western Cape Province shines with the lowest youth unemployment rate at 18.1%, driven by sectors like agriculture, tourism, and business process outsourcing. Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator and the Western Cape Department of Economic Development and Tourism recently hosted an employer breakfast to map out youth job pathways. The upcoming budget allocates 83.9 million rand for skills training in business process outsourcing, tech, and transport, with over 500,000 young people registered on the SA Youth platform. Efforts focus on matching skills with demand, creating apprenticeships, and turning economic gains into lasting jobs for the next generation.
