The One Young World South African Local Organizing Committee (LOC) will once again sponsor the Leading South Africa Award, offering young South African leaders the opportunity to participate in One Young World Summit 2018, The Hague.
The focus will be on innovative solutions to human rights challenges, basic services, access to education and employment opportunities, or addressing corruption. This commitment can come in many forms, ranging from community initiatives to social entrepreneurship to public service.
