Youth Development Ntethelelo foundation

The ntethelelo foundation is a non-profit organisation that is focussed on youth development. applied drama and theatre techniques are employed as facilitation tools for dialogue with young women and girls in order to help them build resilience and allow them a voice, with the aim of fostering behaviour and social change, healing and personal growth. the use of these theatre techniques and drama processes create safe spaces for individuals to challenge stereotypes.

the foundation is based in an informal settlement called sitjwetla, just outside of alexandra township in johannesburg, with their after school programme geared to accommodate  30 young women and 12 young men, ranging from 12 to 18 years of age.
