THE Gauteng Department of Economic Development, in collaboration with the Automotive Industry Development Centre (AIDC), hosted a successful Youth Stakeholder Engagement at the AIDC facility in Tshwane.

- OLUTHANDO KETEYI

The event brought together youth, industry leaders, civil society, labour, and government stakeholders to deliberate on the critical role of young people in shaping the future of South Africa's automotive industry.

Trish Masango, a learner at Lethabong Maths Science and ICT School of Specialization attended the event.

Masango speaking to IOL shared she learned that getting opportunities as a young person is very good as she comes from a very poor family.

"Not being able to get all the equipment and everything that I need to get into school and get everything that I want is impossible because the people I live with didn't get opportunities at my age.

They only started working at the age of 40 going upwards.
