Unemployment in South Africa

South Africa is among the top 10 countries in Africa with the highest unemployment rate. According to the Quarterly Labour Force Survey (QLFS), the current official national rate stands at 34,5%. Statistics South Africa reported the following data regarding youth employment in the first quarter of 2022.

The unemployment rate was 63,9% for those aged 15-24 and 42,1% for those aged 25-34 years

Unemployment rate among young graduates aged 15-24 declined from 40,3% to 32,6% and increased by 6,9% points to 22,4% for those aged 25-34 years in Q1 of 2022

More than half (51,6%) of the working age population (40.0 million) in Q1: 2022 were youth (15-34 years).

Impact of COVID-19 on the economy

The national lockdown in April 2020 had a detrimental effect on the South African economy, which resulted in companies closing doors and forced to layoff some of their workers. This also contributed to the alarming youth unemployment rate.

Wits Entrepreneur Clinic

The Wits School of Business Sciences (SBS) in partnership with the British Council launched the Wits Entrepreneur Clinic (WEC) on the 20 ^th of May 2022 with the aim of mentoring and developing aspiring young entrepreneurs to become future job creators in South Africa. The Clinic is based in the Wits School of Business Science.

The Wits Entrepreneur Clinic team visited the Jabulani D-Lab precinct on the 22 ^nd of July 2022 to give Soweto young entrepreneurs professional and business advice.

The young people were given a platform to pitch their businesses and received advice from the panel. Two of our Health Advocates were among this group of young entrepreneurs.

The Clinic seek to:

Provide a clinic programme for Commerce students from the School of Business Sciences focused on experiential learning and evidenced-based management.
Develop students’ business acumen and improve their overall employability through exposure to and solving of business problems confronting student and informal entrepreneurs.
Accelerate viable entrepreneurial opportunities identified by both student and informal entrepreneurs through the provision of a student-centric clinic programme.
Establish and maintain a clinical footprint both locally and internationally through partnerships with key stakeholders in related entrepreneurial ecosystems.
Harness alumni support through the development of a targeted mentorship programme.
Use the clinic programme as a platform to encourage and support entrepreneurship research.
Develop a culture of and appreciation for entrepreneurship as a viable alternative to employment.
Champion and develop focal areas in digital and sustainable entrepreneurship in order to address challenges associated with the 4th IR and climate change

Well done to those who pitched and the best of luck with their future endeavours!

WITS HEALTH HUBB: EMPOWERING THE YOUTH TODAY FOR A BETTER TOMORROW!

By Kgomotso Mabusetsa

WHH

The Wits Health Hubb aims to empower youth by creating economic opportunities for them in the health sector and positioning these youth as advocates for their own health and the health of the communities they live in.

We have partnered with Kunokhanya Training Academy (KTA) in providing a 12-month Health Promotion Officer

(HPO NQF Level 3) learnership program for formerly NEET (Not in Employment, Education and Training) youth in Soweto, Johannesburg. While the young people are completing their qualification, they also receive a monthly stipend as part of the

work-component of their training. Additionally, while these young people are on the program, they partake in workplace readiness training to give them an added advantage to secure employment once their training is done.

We are proud of the work that we have done so far, making changes in the lives of the young people on our programme, their families, and the communities they live and work in.

A few exciting activities took place within the month of June, that we would like to share with our readers. We had our Substance Abuse and mental health awareness campaign as well as our first cohort of qualified Health Promotion Officers graduate.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS CAMPAIGN

To celebrate and support youth as part of National Youth Day, Wits Health Hubb hosted a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Awareness campaign at Jabulani Safe-Hub on the 24 ^th of June 2022. The purpose of the event was to raise awareness about the dangers and effects of substance abuse and to connect victims and affected family members and friends that need help to organisations or institutions that can assist them. We had 101 youth and their parents attend.

We collaborated with the South African Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence ( SANCA ) and South African Depression and Anxiety Group ( SADAG ) who raised awareness and provided education on substance abuse and its devastating effects on mental and physical health. Discussions around the impact of substance abuse on social factors such as community and family life were also discussed, and attendees were very well engaged. These stakeholders were also able to provide attendees with relevant information relating to rehabilitation and an array of services they provide such as counselling services.

Guest speakers, Thato Mbha famously known as TT Mbha and Mrs Claudine Mofokeng were also invited to give a motivational speech to youth and their parents who attended the event.

Shoprite Soup Kitchen staff served warm, nutritional soup and bread to over 300 people on the day.

Activities included group discussions facilitated by SANCA and SADAG and entertainment from dancers from the community who got the crowd going.

We would like to give a big thanks to our collaborating partners and attendees for making this campaign a success, we could not have done this without you!

FIRST COHORT GRADUATION

Another exciting event was the graduation ceremony, we held on the 24 ^th of June 2022 for our first cohort of graduates. The group sat for their final examination in October 2021 and obtained a 100% pass rate. They are now qualified Health Promotion Officers. Furthermore, the Wits Health Hubb managed to get 75% of this cohort in employment. We are so happy to see the impact of the programme on our graduates, even after their training and we wish them the best of success for all their future endeavours.

Following this group is our second cohort, which consists of 24 health advocates who are currently in training and will complete their Health Promotion Officer (HPO) NQF level 3 qualification in September 2022. This group is thriving academically, and we are excited to see what the future holds for them. Recruitment for the third cohort will start within the next month and interested candidates can get more information about how to apply on our website www.witshealthhubb.org and our social media pages Twitter: @WitsHHubb • Facebook: @Wits Health Hubb • Instagram: @witshealthhubb .

Thank you to our all readers for your interest and support of the programme. We hope we are making you proud!

MAY '22 MEASUREMENT IN ACTION IN DOBSONVILLE

By Kgomotso Mabusetsa

WHH

May Measurement Month (MMM)

May Measurement Month is a blood pressure screening awareness campaign which is recognized globally. It was launched in 2017 by International Society of Hypertension (ISH). The goal is to put emphasis on the importance of taking your blood pressure (BP) and to promote awareness of the risks associated with excessive blood pressure and hypertension.

As part of May Measurement Month, we partnered with Phila Sonke to explore solutions for health promotion and prevention of disease. We conducted blood pressure screenings and made referrals in the community of Dobsonville, Soweto for 2 weeks.

The aims of the May Measurement Month 2022 campaign are as follows:

To highlight the importance of measuring Blood Pressure.
To identify and facilitate the reduction of Blood Pressure of those people who require intervention to lower their Blood Pressure according to current guidelines.

In this 2-week period, our Health Advocates conducted 1009 blood pressure measurements and referred 274 participants to either a gym or their local health facilities.

What you need to know about Blood Pressure

What is blood pressure?

Blood Pressure is a measure of the force that your heart uses to pump blood around your body.

Blood Pressure, if left untreated, can increase the risk of developing stroke, kidney or cardiovascular complications.

Blood Pressure numbers explained:

Blood Pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg). A Blood Pressure reading has 2 numbers, Systolic and Diastolic.

Systolic is the first number and it indicates the pressure in your large blood vessels when your heart beats.

Diastolic is the second number and it indicates the pressure in your large blood vessels when your heart rests between beats.

A Blood Pressure reading is considered high when it is 140/90mmHg and low if it is 90/60mmHg.

Some of the tips for a healthy blood pressure:

exercise regularly
reduce salt intake
eat a healthy diet, like vegetables and fruits
limit the amount of alcohol you consume
reduced stress

Measuring blood pressure levels regularly is vital for the effective management of hypertension for a healthier, longer life.

The Wits Health Hubb Team would like to extend their deepest gratitude to the community of Dobsonville, Soweto and the ward councillor Salamina Mpotulo for their support and warm welcome into their homes.

HUBB Life: Keeping the light on

KEEPING THE LIGHT ON...…

By Kgomotso Mabusetsa

WHH

South Africa has one of the largest HIV epidemics in the world, with about 7.7 million people currently

living with the virus.

HIV awareness events are vital as they increase knowledge of safe practices to prevent infection and

decrease infection rates and give a safe space for community members to ask questions.

On the 20th of May 2022, we attended a Candlelight event at Phiri hall with other Region D Stakeholders.

Sister Confidence Mokoena (Operations manager, Tladi Skills Centre): "Candlelight 2022 was not only

about shining a light on those who passed from HIV, but also those we have lost from COVID-19.

Although HIV was our core focus, community members should always remember that there are other

infections that exist. Our goal is to host these kind of events in order to raise awareness and educate the

community.”

The event happens every year but due to COVID-19, it hasn’t been hosted in the past two years. The

purpose of the event was to raise awareness on HIV/AIDS, to give support to those who are living with

these conditions and to light candles to commemorate those who have died from HIV/AIDS and COVID-19.

Some of the stakeholders who attended the event included: Wits Health Hubb, ANOVA, MoAfrika and

Senoane clinic - working together to provide health screening and advice not only for HIV and COVID, but

also for hypertension and diabetes throughout the day.

HEALTH ADVOCATES: We work together as one

Mon, 31 Jan 2022 21:01:55 GMT

We work together as one…

There are numerous aspects that contribute to improving an individual’s health. One aspect that poses a difficulty to many is determining how and where to obtain resources that assist the community in ameliorating their health. As a result of this gap, our health advocates face a significant challenge in assisting the community with their needs. Efforts made to address these issues in a specific community are referred to as "community-based interventions."

These interventions, ideally, do not attempt to help manage any condition in isolation, but rather view each person holistically, identify their needs and attempt to provide

support • through • collaboration

between the community, Wits Heath Hubb, and other identified stakeholders. When health advocates visit patients at home, they identify problems and try to match them with service providers to ensure that individual and community needs are met.

On a routine visit, one of our health advocates met a community member who had suffered from a stroke. After being discharged from the hospital, he was referred to the local clinic for physiotherapy and supply of a wheelchair.

However, the local clinic had no wheelchairs in stock, and the physiotherapists were unavailable. The patient was then referred to a community health centre.

Our team, working with partners in the community, were able to obtain a wheelchair and are in the process of locating a physiotherapist.

Sharing my experience as a Health Advocate

By Valentine Gugu Xaba

Health Advocate

It is easier to advocate for other people and help them be in control of their own health, as the phrase goes if you have good health you have everything

Being part of the Wits Health Hubb program has made a significant impact in my life, as a young person living with high blood pressure I had limited information about the illness but now I'm proud to say my knowledge has improved so does my health. I have absorbed vast knowledge, It took only one healthy conversation in a taxi and a life was impacted. It warmed my heart to hear from a community member thanking me, the impact is visible not only to me but my community as well. I can now lead a healthier lifestyle and maintain my blood pressure. It is easier to advocate for other people and help them be in control of their own health, as the phrase goes if you have good health you have everything.

The meaning behind the colours of the rainbow

WITS HEAL TH HU BB

As health Advocates , we are required to help the community to make better health choices and live a healthy lifestyle. We always take note that we are a rainbow nation and because of that we are able to comprehend the fact that people have different beliefs from ours individually and we should always respect peoples beliefs. By understanding and respecting peoples beliefs we then stand in a better position to assist or help them discover better solutions of health.

We will impact the community one member at the time and the hope is to leave them more healthier than we met them.

About the author:

Basetsana Marumo (21) from Dobsonville is one of our 2021/2022 Health Advocates.

She says “growing up I only knew health as being a doctor or a nurse, I didn’t know there were other things”. She now realises the importance of doing regular health-checks “I’ve never done any health checks before and I now realise that high blood pressure is a silent killer, you never know whether you have it or not, so it is important for people to go for check-ups”. She believes the program has a positive impact on youth and the community, and while she’s a bit nervous to start her community health screening, she’s looking forward to applying the skills she’s learned so far.

The meaning behind the colours of the rainbow

Red

RED has the longest wavelength, in which we reflect that as the time goes on we would like people to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Deaths rates reduced to a minimum and people making good lifestyle choices.

Orange & Yellow

ORANGE and YELLOW are warm and vibrant coloUrs, representing good manners and enthusiasm. We are happy to do what are we passionate about and still be able to help people. We are pleased to serve and still spread good energy, respect and love to the people.

Green

GREEN is the color of life, wealth and growth. Green represents the code we as health workers stand for, people growing healthy and strong, living a long worthy life.

Blue

BLUE represents peace and stability. We are to bring stability in the communities and peace of mind to the people knowing that they’re healthy is the color of life, wealth and growth. Green represents the code we as health workers stand for, people growing healthy and strong, living a long worthy life.

Indigo

INDIGO, the color of awareness and intuition, the promotion of new and existing diseases, giving people the information and knowledge on how to abstain, prevent and treat certain diseases and conditions. As it is said by father of medicine; prevention is better than cure!

Violet

VIOLET , the color of royalty, kindness and Transformation. Our services to the community members will feel like royalty. With all the knowledge and information we’ll be passing to people, with hope that they’ll make better health choices to reduce avoidable diseases and live a healthier longer life.

Health is also a big investment, so through this program and what it offers, we will impact the community one member at the time and the hope is to leave them more healthier than we met them.
