I am ‘on the job for jobs’ and my overarching objective is to create the right conditions for economic growth and therefore, job creation. Skills development, especially for our youth, is a critical factor in making this happen.

By investing in our young people, not only will we recover from the impact of Covid-19, but we also lay the groundwork for economic growth that creates the jobs that we need to roll-back poverty in the Western Cape.
