On Saturday, ZAPP in the 2020s and Poetry Nonscenes had our final collaborative session with Youth Speaks, an American poetry organisation. Our South African and American participants had the opportunity to exchange stories and write poetry about one another's cultural experiences. It was a meaningful and engaging session.

Thank you to Solution Technologies for providing us with conferencing equipment. It worked superbly. Visit them via their website (soltech.co.za).
