Vrygeborenes (‘born frees’): Kies jou toekoms

Made possible by Die Burger

WITH Mercy Kannemeyer (writer, theatre maker, director and opinion shaper), Ashley Jade Swartz (BA student at the University of the Western Cape and involved in a welfare organization in Porterville), Dr Rudi Buys (Executive Dean of the DaVinci Business Institute and Chief Academic Officer of NetEd Group) and Helene Badenhorst (attorney and vice-chairman of the Oudtshoorn Business Chamber) FACILITATOR Jody Hendricks

We discuss how the so-called born frees, citizens born after 1990, see the challenges, opportunities and future of South Africa. Topics such as basic services, access to higher education and unemployment are discussed. And we ask if they still carry the baggage of the past that their parents carried.
