Nokukhanya's Community: Mgobodzi

Mgobodzi is a small community situated in the northern region of eSwatini with nearly 1,500 people. Most of the youth in this area are unable to graduate from high school due to lack of funds. Thus, many children stay home, leading to drug problems amongst those who have nothing to do to occupy their time. Unfortunately, limited job opportunities exist in Mgobodzi, and the only jobs available, if ever, are in the timber industry.
