In September 2009 the PMP launched Bokamoso ba rona, a national youth campaign employing various tools to encourage the youth to identify and discuss the issues that confront them in their daily lives; to explore the commonalities in their experience; to identify creative solutions to these challenges; and share their dreams and aspirations for the future.

The Bokamoso Ba Rona Youth Campaign is the PMP’s most ambitious project to date. Through the innovative use of various tools and networking technologies, and by forming strategic partnerships with a range of stakeholders, the PMP aims to make a significant and enduring impact on youth development in South Africa. The campaign aims not only to create a broader awareness of the scope and severity of the social challenges faced by the youth of South Africa, but also to directly assist young people in overcoming these challenges.
Bokamoso Ba Rona aims to create an empowering environment for the youth to address these issues by making available tools that will allow them to find creative responses to the challenges they face, and to link them with existing institutions and programmes that can empower and assist them. As Parliament’s primary nation-building campaign, the PMP further aims to highlight these issues amongst Members of Parliament, and strengthen the capacity of Members of Parliament to use parliamentary mechanisms to support the youth in their efforts to address these issues. Ultimately the project aims to encourage the youth to create a positive vision of a future South Africa, and consider the actions and attitudes that will be required to make this vision a reality.
