Welcome to enke: Make Your Mark

“So, to all the skeptics… we’ve spent a week with the future of South Africa – and if it’s any indication – we’d like to say that the future looks just fine.”

Forum 2011

enke: Forum 2011

This year’s Forum saw 145 grade 11 pupils coming together from different backgrounds, different schools and different parts of the country.  This means that in just over 2 years, over 400 pupils have been impacted by enke. At this year’s forum various speakers (Moeletsi Mbeki, Clem Sunter, Setlogane Manchidi, Leigh Meinert, Peter Golding, Rachel Adams, Rajesh Latchman and Chris Bradford) graced enke as Guest Speakers. They shared their life’s experiences and brought to light some of the challenges they think are facing South African Youth, as well as possible solutions. The level of enthusiasm displayed by the delegates  was tangible enough  to make one’s goose bumps appear beneath the numerous layers of clothing.”It’s been life changing!” One delegate said. In the next 9 months, the delegates will be going out to their communities to implement their CAPs (Community Action Projects), so if I were you, I would watch this space!

A youth entrepreneurship and peer networking initiative, enke’s mission is to reduce inequality in South Africa by connecting across social divides and equipping and inspiring young people to take control of their futures and the future of their country.
