In the video below, Rhodes University Community Engagement Coordinator Vuyani Zondani explains the concept behind the Youth Hub and Ikamva Youth tutor Noxolo Mabona gives a stirring rendition of an untitled poem she wrote about the challenges facing young people today.

Mabona says she uses her passion for maths and science to get young people excited about learning. Visit our website to see her perform her poem.
