Ndavi Nokeri Starts An Educational Audiovisual Podcast
Miss South Africa Ndavi Nokeri joins YouTube as she makes good on a promise she made to the nation when she was crowned in 2022, which was to help equalize the playing field by ensuring equal education for all – regardless of color or economic status.
Starting on Tuesday, April 25, as part of her Ed-Unite campaign, Nokeri will hold conversations with experts in the education sector to help learners and their parents or guardians receive the decision-making information they need.
Every episode in the series of audio-visual podcasts will have a specific theme.
In each of them, Nokeri will deal with topics that affect the lives of ordinary students, learners, and educators. Episodes will be information-rich and provide an insight into what is available within the sector, and where and how to access it.
One of the topics that Nokeri will explore includes student funding. To talk about this complex issue, Ndavi will be joined by Karabo Mohale, Executive Deputy Chairperson of The National Youth Development Agency, and Lennox Wasara, Mastercard Foundation alumni. Another episode will be dedicated to careers and will include information about the changing world of work in this digital age. Vumile Msweli, a career coach and CEO of Hesed Consulting, will be on hand to provide some of the most frequently asked questions in this
area.
A subject Nokeri feels strongly about, Period Poverty, will be given an entire episode on Ed-Unite Talks. She will be joined by Candice Chirwa, Minister of Menstruation, Founder and Director of Qrate, and a Menstrual Activist. As part of her campaign, on International Women’s Day in March this year, Ndavi handed out sanitary/dignity packs to learners at Mashooro Secondary School in Ga Mokgwathi Village near where she grew up in Tzaneen, Limpopo.
The safety of children within the school environment is a much-debated global topic. Ndavi will host attorney Karabo Ozah, Director of the Centre for Child Law, and Xolani Fakude, an educational psychologist at the South African Democratic Teachers Union to discuss the issue of safety in this episode.
Nokeri believes that these YouTube conversations will have an impact: “The Constitution is the supreme law of the land with a Bill of Rights that outlines the human rights of South
Africans. Education is one of these human rights. Every person in this country has the right to an excellent education. Through my Ed-Unite campaign, I want to honor that human right and ensure a good education for all.”
