The Pravah Activate! Youth Exchange Programme
Who we are... ACTIVATE! Change Drivers is a Network of over 4000 active citizens with the capacity to drive change for the public good across South Africa. The network connects youth (Activators) who have the skills, sense of self and spark to address tough challenges and initiate innovative and creative solutions that can reshape our society. Activators have a shared purpose, commitment and responsibility to forge a better, more just South Africa for the public good and for themselves.

Pravah was seeded in 1993, with the intent to create safe spaces for adolescents and youth to form their own opinions, worldview, bring about change within themselves and the society around them. Pravah views youth through the youth centric development lens which focuses on building their leadership potential. We work with young people from diverse backgrounds to build their agency and enable them to act, such that they become self-aware, deeply empathetic, socially responsible leaders.

The Norwegian Agency for Exchange Cooperation (Norec) is an executive body under the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Our aim is to help achieve the overarching goals of Norwegian development policy, which form part of Norway’s integrated approach to implementing the 2030 agenda. We do this through mutual exchange. This means that we work with international partners who want to use the exchange model to learn from each other and develop. Norec provides grants, follow-up, and training to about 220 partners from various countries. Our partners consist of organizations, institutions, and private businesses in Norway, Africa, Asia, and Latin America. We all work together to solve global problems, based on local needs and conditions.
