About Us
Youth Village South Africa is a youth portal founded by Bruce Dube of Nine80 Digital. The platform focuses extensively on facilitating better access to developmental information across South Africa with core focus on the youth. Apart from its widely known focus on making developmental information available to African youth, Youth Village also aims to use its portals across Africa as platforms to tell stories about young people doing remarkable work in their communities and stimulate an element of unity across the continent by sharing stories of growth and development.
Over the past year we have focused extensively on making available rich content on Employment, Entrepreneurship, Youth Health, Education and the Youth Services Database Platform to help facilitate development in the lives of the African youth.
