This Youth Month, we celebrate the passion and dedication of young people who are shaping the future of healthcare in Gauteng. The events of June 16, 1976, remind us of the courage and determination of the youth who changed the course of our nation's history. Under this year's theme, "RESET@50 – The Future Calls," the Department of Health encourages young people to continue dreaming big. Together, let us strengthen healthcare delivery and improve the lives of our communities.

As we commemorate Youth Day, we honour the brave young people of 16 June 1976, who marched through the streets of Soweto and across our country in pursuit of justice, dignity, and a better future.

Their bravery shaped the history of our province and altered the course of South Africa's journey towards democracy.

Gauteng stands as the nation’s economic and social hub, built on the foundations laid by the 1976 generation who refused to accept inequality and oppression.

As we reflect on their legacy, we are reminded that the responsibility of building a prosperous, inclusive and innovative society now rests with today's y.outh.
