Creating Access at Scale: Doornkop Youth Show Up for Opportunity

In Doornkop, over 400 young people gathered for the Harmony Gold project information session.

This turnout is more than a number, it’s a reflection of a broader national reality. South Africa’s youth are actively seeking opportunities to participate in the economy, and when access is created, they respond.

At Lulaway, we focus on building systems that bridge the gap between potential and opportunity. The Lularides programme is one such solution, designed to connect young people with real, accessible pathways into work.

This moment highlights:

• The scale of youth demand for opportunity
• The importance of community-based engagement
• The value of partnerships in driving impact

As we continue to grow our footprint, our mission remains clear: to enable access, unlock potential, and create meaningful economic participation for young people across South Africa.
