The DSTI-NYS programme is a key initiative under South Africa’s National Youth Service Programme (NYS). Managed by the South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement (SAASTA) of the National Research Foundation, the programme offers unemployed graduates under the age of 35 the opportunity to gain valuable skills and work experience. Participants are placed in partner institutions for 12 months and receive monthly stipends to cover basic needs. The programme focuses on graduates in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics but occasionally accepts graduates from other fields as per recruitment requirements. This initiative promotes community service, volunteerism, and skill-building, increasing employability while fostering an understanding of youth's role in South Africa's development.
