🚨 Durban, Are You Ready? Collaboration Junction is Coming to YOU! 🚨
Something big is coming to the coast — and we want you in the room. 🫱🏽🫲🏼
Youth Development Collaboration Lab (YD Co-Lab) is bringing its next in-person Collaboration Junction to Durban, and this one is going to be something special. If you’re a youth development practitioner, a passionate NPO worker, a funder, a teacher, a community builder — this event is for you.
And just to sweeten the deal…
🎟️ Three lucky attendees will walk away with a free ticket to our YD Co-Lab Annual Summit later this year! (More details announced at the event.)

💡 But First — What is a Collaboration Junction?
Great question. At YD Co-Lab, we believe collaboration is more than just a buzzword. It’s a tool. A lifeline. A way forward.
Collaboration Junction is our signature event series designed to bring together people across the youth development ecosystem to connect, exchange ideas, and collaborate on real solutions.
Think:
✅ Inspiring local spotlight organisations sharing what works
✅ Networking without the awkward small talk
✅ Big conversations with people who get it
✅ Practical insights, partnerships, and collective energy
You’ll leave with new connections, fresh ideas, and that “I’m not in this alone” feeling that makes all the difference.
