July 11, 2009 – Students at Professor Muhammad Yunus’s lecture at CIDA City Campus yesterday share their reflections on his inspiring words.

“It was really interesting and educational. I absorbed lots of information I didn’t know and I was able to meet different people and learn about new things.” – Nelisa Koyana. | |
“The session was interesting, I learnt a lot and I am inspired.” – Mazhar Tar Mohammed. | |
“The session was really inspirational. The amount of energy from the audience was amazing. If we could come together and form organisations we could do great things. His policies can be implemented in South Africa we just need people who will work hard and believe in them.” – Lerato Mokhatla. | |
“Today was great. I would encourage the Foundation to host more sessions like this one because it is on such platforms that we get to voice our opinions and the visions we have of this country.” – Tebogo Mokganyeti. | |
“The session was inspirational and eye-opening. It shows us that it is possible to achieve goals – even if you have nothing, you can start from the bottom up.” – Stephanie Cowper. |
