Employ more women, pay them fairly, and build the economy

On average, South African women have more educational qualifications but still remain less employed and
economically active than men. In fact, young women are 6-8% less likely to be working than men.

This reality proves Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator’s decade-long hypothesis that more schooling
and qualifications alone do not translate into economic opportunity, particularly for those most excluded
from the labour market.
