Youth Day Special We spend a lot of time looking overseas for the next big technology breakthrough. This Youth Day, look closer. A learner from Sitintile Secondary School in Mpumalanga named Sinenhlanhla Sikhulile Nkosi built a solution to microplastic contamination in water, a problem that has stumped researchers globally. Forget the apps and the algorithms. This is the innovation story of the day. In August, he takes it to the Stockholm Junior Water Prize.

You want to know what young South Africans are doing right now? They are making moves. Big ones. Unathi Nkuta is 14 years old, still in school, and she just landed a principal role in a professional ballet production. Not someday. Now. And she is not alone. All over this country, young people are stepping up, stepping out, and stepping into spaces that were not always built for them. This Youth Day, we're putting them in the spotlight, because honestly, they&#39;ve already found it themselves.
