“By participating in this event young people are given the opportunity to conceptualize, develop and introduce their talents, while gaining practical experience”, she said.

The Go Green concept was developed around waste reduction, affordability and sustainability with the intention to engage our young people and encourage them to make ethical and sustainable choices, and to develop entrepreneurial skills.. 

Together with TYEE Zumba the programme promotes a healthy lifestyle for young people.
