SUPERHEROES LAUNCH VISION 2030
On October 3 Ikamvanites from all over South Africa and our extended IkamvaYouth family gathered in Cape Town to mark ten years of impact on education in South Africa.
There was plenty to celebrate. By the end of 2012 we’d supported 3 000 learners through high school and 94% of our 2012 matriculants passed – 90% qualifying to study for degrees or diplomas, and 96% accessing post-school placements. With new branches in the Eastern Cape and North West province we’re now working in five provinces.
Minister in the Presidency Trevor Manuel was guest speaker at the milestone event. A fitting choice as we also launched Vision 2030 which aligns IkamvaYouth firmly with the National Development Plan for 2030.
Minister Manuel described IkamvaYouth’s development as “a decade of fighting for change, of growing a movement”. “You are the change, the model that works … (and) must be taken forward,” he said.
VISION 2030 (IkamvaYouth)
ALL who begin Grade 1 in 2018 will pass matric or the equivalent.
ALL who matriculate in 2030 will access post school opportunities.
ALL young people, with IY support will earn a dignified living after accessing learning opportunities.
To achieve this, we plan to partner with those who share our vision.
