The latest unemployment statistics show a continued rise in the levels of youth unemployment with the expanded unemployment rate creeping up to 52% for youth aged 15 to 34 years (Statistics South Africa, 2019). The most significant contributor to this situation is the limited growth in the number of jobs that can match the number of new work seekers entering the labour market each year. However, barriers to the labour market and struggles in navigating the pathways to work also contribute to the challenge.
