We heard from Eleanor Swartz - Project leader of the Ashley Kriel Youth Leadership
Development Project. She was speaking to us about the 9th Ashley Kriel Youth memorial lecture. The Institute for Justice and Reconciliation in partnership with the
University of the Western Cape is hosting its annual Ashley Kriel youth memorial
lecture "Re-imagining the youth: From deficit to opportunity" which challenges
youth to re-imagine themselves and their abilities with positivity, and aims to
encourage youth to take a proactive approach to leadership and development
within their communities. IJR’s desired outcome of the Ashley Kriel Youth
Leadership Development Project and annual lecture is to help empower young
people to realise their full potential and their individual roles and
responsibilities in achieving their personal goals and contributing to the
development of societies that are non-racial, non-sexist and all-inclusive. For
further information you can contact Eleanor on (021) 763 7128 or send an email
