"Young people in Africa need to speak out and say 'we're here to fight malaria'!" 🗯️ On #InternationalYouthDay, it's more important than ever that our voices are heard 🗣️ Listen up - malaria champion Paballo @ChatWithChauke has a message 👇
Learn to put yourself out there— apply for every opportunity you see, nominate yourself for awards, lists, volunteering etc— always throw your hat in the ring. You’ll win some & lose some. Get used to rejections—let them propel you, you don’t need anyone’s permission to be great!
Congratulations to SU's Ms Malebo Malope from the Division of Molecular Biology and Human Genetics, who has been named one of Mail & Guardian's 200 Young South Africans in the health category. Malope is the first black genetic counsellor in South Africa.
