The Agency has spent an estimated 74% of its annual budget and 98% of its quarterly budget.
The Agency has entered into a partnership with the Kwa-Zulu Natal Provincial Government whereby the province will provide the Agency with six outreach vehicles to increase the Agency’s reach to young people in the province. This will be in addition to the offices opened in Newcastle and Richards Bay in collaboration with local municipalities.
NYDA welcomes the announcement of fee-free higher education and will work together with National Student Financial Aid Scheme to provide joint support in terms of a collaborative youth development approach. NYDA currently provides NSFAS with access to its branch network to receive and process student applications and this partnership has seen a substantive amount of success in its first year of implementation.
The Agency is currently undertaking consultations with young people on the Integrated Youth Development Strategy. Once completed the IYDS shall provide a blueprint and all encompassing youth development approach. It is proposed that it also places the Agency at the forefront of the Monitoring and Evaluation of youth development in South Africa.
