Ikamva Lolutsha Programme
Young Futures
Our Approach
Ikamva Lolutsha is built on one simple belief: young people are powerful agents of change.
Through a combination of life skills training, personal coaching, and ongoing mentorship, the programme helps youth create Life Plans – practical roadmaps to achieving their goals.
Whether it’s starting a business, completing a course, or landing their first job, we’re here to support the journey – and celebrate the wins.
How It Works
-
Youth from across all Ubunye partner areas join the Ikamva Life Skills course
-
Participants explore their goals and map out a Life Plan
-
Ongoing coaching and support help them stay on track
-
Small grants are available to help bring their plans to life – from funding a startup to covering books or transport for school or job interviews
Our Impact
Ubunye created its own Ikamva Lolutsha Life Skills course for young women in 2019.
In 2025, Ubunye started a pilot Life Skills course for young men aimed at creating building blocks for their future and addressing gender-based violence.
Today, the programme reaches youth in both Ngqushwa and Fort Brown, working across all Ubunye programmes to ensure inclusive recruitment and support
