And one of our own achieves!!!!!!!

Our former Vice President of The Rotaract of Matopos  our very own Pamela N Mukwenha  who is currently in exile  in South Africa *for academic reasons* was selected out of a million global applicants to be a delegate at a Global Change makers summit which was held in England recently. Pamela  an undergraduate student of Chemical Engineering at the University of Pretoria is also the cofounder of Jamili Afrika an organisation that she started with her friends to promote the good name of Africa.Her selection to be a delegate at the summit automatically makes her an ambassador of the Global Change makers programme .The Global Changemakers programme is managed by the British Council Switzerland. The British Council is the United Kingdoms’s international organisation for cultural relations and educational opportunities .The Global Change makers are a select group of young people, aged from 16 to 25, who have demonstrated a significant track record of achievement in their local communities through social entrepreneurship, community activism and volunteer work. These exceptional young people are part of a global network where they share ideas, knowledge, and best practices, and where they work individually and together on projects that directly impact the lives of those in their local communities. Currently there are over 730 change makers from 120 countries working alongside more than 50,000 other young people to promote positive social change.

Pamela credits her love for community development through social entrepreneurship to her work as a youth ambassador under the Ministry of Education & JICA, her experiences with Rotaract Matopos and Lead Us Today . The Club congratulates her on her achievement and clearly the world will continue to shake because of ‘small giants” like her. Amhlophe ,Makorokoto "usifake emephini siyaziqhenya ngawe'   #we are proud of you#.
