YLED - Wits Students Society

WITS YLED SOCIETY 2019...

TOMORROW: Our 2019 Society and academic journey begins with the welcome session. The invite is open to everyone. Members, bring friends along!

Last night at the 's got to spend some time with the ladies and speak on who we are and what we do. It was a wholesome experience. We hope the partnership we have built with them be a fruitful one throughout the year.

YLED Alumnae left, right and centre! Rightly so, since this year we're celebrating these young activists and all their continued contributions to ensuring a better South Africa to live in for all other young people.

The Team is hard at work recruiting members for the new academic year. Nurturing Minds, Developing Leaders!

This choose to be at the Wits Orientation Week at YLED. If you're an alumnus, are a new student or returning student and are at Wits for the O-Week, do come around to our stall and get acquainted with us, get information and definitely sign up!

We will be around for the entire week. We look forward to welcoming and interacting with you!

In preparation for our last Masterclass on "Leadership and Social Responsibility", the topic culminates everything we've gone through thus far this academic year. Whether or not you've attended previous Masterclasses, we believe that this session will be immensely beneficial by adding to the topic.

Main points will include:

On Leadership:
What is a leader and what does it mean to be one?
Are leaders born or can they be created?
What's the difference between a leader and a manager?
Ultimately, through be the leader of self first, can one take up the role of leading and mentoring others?

On Social Responsibility:
What is social responsibility?
What is giving back?
How can we prepare ourselves to give back in our respective spaces without expecting much?

This is just the crux of it. Come engage. Invite friends.

The Session is this evening, from 17:30-19:30 at the Umthombo Building, Floor One.

We're looking forward to seeing you guys there.

The 3rd YLED Hollard visit is currently underway. This year, we have 10 students from the flagship programme and 6 University students who are taking part in the initiative.

The programme is currently ongoing, with Thabiso speaking on Finance & Corporate Governance.

IN PICTURES: Last night's Master Class - Social Activism facilitated by Onke Mazibuko and Nhlalala Bilankulu saw some lively discussions and debates on what it means to be an activist to self first through self-mastery, and the role one can play in the communities and for us as students and student activists most importantly, in the ACADEMIA.

‪Today the YLED Society hosts its third Masterclass of the year titled, Social Activism. Our facilitators for the evening are Nhlalala Bilankulu (deputy chair) and Onke Mazibuko, a friend of the . ‬
