During the summit, Mirabelle alongside Catherine Peter, Chairman of One Young World Africa, facilitated a parallel session on the topic, A Future for Youth; asking fellow participants about their opinions on formal education in Africa and how formal education affects youth employability. “A good attitude and a great learning spirit, these two things go beyond formal education and are important skills or values every youth should have,” said Mirabelle.
