Commemorating 50 Years of Resilience: RESET @50 – The Future Calls.... 🇿🇦

As we mark the historic 50th Golden Jubilee of the June 16 Soweto Uprising tomorrow, our national theme “RESET@50 – The Future Calls”, challenges us to move beyond remembrance and build practical pathways to economic inclusion.

Living out the national call to action by "Mapping the Barriers and Auditing Access for Economic Inclusion," Bloemfontein’s very own Thomas Tsintsing is actively answering the call. As the founder of The Engineered Movement, Tsintsing perfectly embodies the spirit of "Vuka Zenzele" waking up, taking initiative, and dismantling the barriers of youth unemployment through raw innovation.

By showcasing high-quality industrial metal designs at the University of the Free State (UFS) festival and transforming his workshop into a practical engineering training ground for local youth, he proves that "Freedom Lives in Every Generation."

True economic liberation begins when we equip today's youth with the skills to lead and thrive in a changing world. Let’s back our local SMMEs and champion the creators forging the future of the Free State
economy.
