The NYDA indicated that the revised Integrated Youth Development Strategy will be completed by the end of the financial year. The NYDA plans to have 700,000 young people receiving information on youth development through the Agency's access points. In fulfilling its key objective of lobbying key stakeholders to support and implement youth development programmes, the NYDA plans to lobby 30 private and public entities to establish youth directorates. In addition, the Agency intends to establish 70 partnerships across government, the private sector and civil society. The NYDA indicated that it has been in discussions with Telkom and its cellular phone subsidiary 8ta on ways to utilise young people in its marketing activities.
