Civil society groups have welcomed the Gauteng High High Court’s request to the National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) to end delays in the review application related to permits allowing weapons exports to Saudi Arabian and the UAE. It comes amid the backdrop of Saudi relentlessly waging war on Yemen, killing innocent people. Saudi Arabia and the UAE have been equipped with weapons from major exporting countries, including South Africa, to continue its barrage of attacks.

Civil Society Welcomes Court's Directive To Not Delay Arms Trade Case | Radio 786

The partnership between EBL and GCITI Campus started in 2023. 

During that time youth were trained in digital skills, where they received Level 5 certificate from University of Free State – Business School. 

In 2024, the relationship 
was cemented to offer Data Analytics and Cyber Security Training programmes for youth. The demand for both data analytics and cybersecurity professionals is growing. Youth equipped with these skills are better positioned for future job opportunities, 
especially in tech-driven industries. 

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for data analysts and scientists is projected to grow by about 31% from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations.

Guests:  Llewellyn Scholtz from the I-CAN Centre, Lesala Ketheng from EBL & Ivano Laurens (Student – Success Stories)
