Masechaba Ntsane shares concrete examples of youth-led impact through @equal_education’s work. One key victory was the development and implementation of the Minimum Norms and Standards for School Infrastructure in 2013, which was shaped directly by learner input, and made it legally binding for schools to provide water, sanitation, electricity, and safe classrooms. She also highlights advocacy during COVID-19, where learners raised concerns about losing access to the National School Nutrition Programme. Through legal action, Equal Education ensured meals continued, recognising their role in learners’ ability to focus and develop. Ntsane underscores a central message that when young people are organised, informed, and empowered, they are able to drive systemic change and hold institutions accountable. #EducationConversations @EduFacultyUJ

Masechaba Ntsane @equal_education opens her presentation by grounding youth participation in both lived experience and global evidence. Referencing UNESCO, she notes that “government inclusion of youth is not at a scale that would actually see it happening,” with only about one in five engagements reflecting meaningful participation. Equal Education’s theory of change is centred on developing a “conscientised, organised youth” capable of driving an equal and just education system. This includes building a critical mass of learners, post-school youth, parents, and community members who can act as a moral and political force to hold government accountable. This is achieved through organising, member-led activism, and structured spaces in which young people co-create knowledge, understand the law, and unpack the structural roots of inequality, thereby building the intellectual and leadership capacity needed for sustained activism. #EducationConversations @EduFacultyUJ

This Human Rights Day we’re asking a simple but urgent question: what does real support for TVET students on NSFAS actually look like — beyond paperwork and promises? ✨ Join us for a Twitter Space on 19 March | 18:30–20:00, where we’ll surface lived challenges, unpack administrative failures, and discuss practical reforms that protect students’ stability and dignity. This conversation will centre student experiences alongside rights-based and policy perspectives. Join @equal_education and us for a breakdown on the TVET system and what support should look like. Bring your questions, evidence, and short stories. RSVP: bit.ly/4dinyMN 💛 #HumanRightsDay #RightToEducation #TVET #NSFAS #YouthCapital
