YoPA in Soweto celebrates intervention with a hiking trip

November 26th, 2025

The YoPA team in Soweto has proudly concluded both the intervention and control group programmes with an exciting outdoor field trip, where participants enjoyed a refreshing and energetic hiking experience.

The groups—composed of youth aged 12 to 18—completed their hikes at different times, with the intervention group taking to the trails at the end of August 2025, followed by the control group at the end of October. Both hikes offered participants a chance to connect with nature, strengthen peer bonds, and celebrate their journey in the project.

This milestone marks the second last session of the YoPA programme in Soweto, and the successful completion of the hikes reflects the positive engagement, commitment, and overall success of the project in the community.
