The voices of 1976 marched for freedom. The voices of today are building the future.
Throughout Youth Month, Sol Plaatje University has been running a digital campaign that spotlighted bold, unfiltered student voices – the changemakers shaping our community from the inside out. Now, we bring those voices together, in person.
SPU invites you to a powerful Youth Month Dialogue – a space where young leaders, visionaries and changemakers gather to confront the challenges of today while honouring the legacy of the Soweto Uprisings. Their fight for justice and equality lives on in a new generation unafraid to speak, shape, and rise.
Date: Wednesday, 16 July 2025
Time: 16:00 – 19:30
Venue: Library Auditorium | Central Campus
Under the theme “Skills for the Changing World – Empowering Youth for Meaningful Economic Participation,” this dialogue will amplify youth voices on the frontline of change – offering insight, inspiration and ideas driven by lived experience.
This isn’t just a conversation. It’s a continuation of the legacy.
