Our
Audience
and
Messages1:
The
campaign
will
engage
youth,
parents,
and
caretakers
to
take
their
share
of
responsibility
for
education
and
learning.
Learners
are
not
sufficiently
engaged
in
the
learning
process.
Often
they
struggle
materially.
Further,
most
do
not
know
what
educational
success
looks
like
(no
role
models)
and
what
it
can
mean
for
them.
Parents
and
caretakers
are
also
not
sufficiently
engaged
in
the
learning
process.
Most
South
Africans
believe
that
schools
are
the
exclusive
place
of
learning
and
that
teachers
have
sole
responsibility
for
teaching.
This
is
absolutely
false.
In
fact,
these
perceptions
are
dangerous.
Without
appropriate
input
and
effort
from
learners,
parents,
and
caretakers
it
will
be
impossible
for
educational
outcomes
in
South
Africa
to
improve
broadly
and
consistently.
This
campaign
seeks
to
empower
youth,
parents
and
caretakers
with
the
knowledge
of
the
essential
role
they
play
in
learning.
Without
this
mental
change,
there
will
be
no
change
in
conduct
regarding
learning
and
we
will
continue
to
suffer
the
consequences
of
poor
educational
outcomes.
Coupled
with
a
lack
of
understanding
of
the
role
of
community,
family,
and
youth
in
education,
is
an
anti-‐intellectualism
in
South
Africa
that
further
undermines
learning.
South
Africa
does
not
have
a
culture
of
learning
or
reading.
Learning
and
reading
are
not
generally
valued
throughout
our
society.
As
a
result,
we
remain
in
a
vicious
cycle
of
generally
inadequate
achievement
educationally.
To
break
the
cycle,
a
paradigm
shift
and
then
a
shift
in
action
are
required.
There
have
been
piecemeal
educational
campaigns.
There
has
never
been
a
coordinated,
national,
professional,
compelling,
multi-‐media,
multi-‐lingual,
multi-‐year
campaign
such
as
the
one
proposed
here.
Consequently,
previous
campaigns
have
not
accomplished
much.
For
example,
previous
literacy
campaigns
have
been
limited
to
traditional
print
media
–
which
means
that
they
have
excluded
those
not
reading
–
the
very
audience
they
were
trying
to
reach!

In

the

ideas
were
discussed.
We

members
of
Bridge
1.
Problem:
Young
people
feel
entitled
to
instant
success;
wrongly
believe
that
success
is
an
event,
not
a
process;
and
wrongly
believe
that
there
is
no
working
one’s
way
up,
but
that
you
get
the
“top
job”
right
from
getting
a
credential.
Potential
Campaign:
What
was
your
first
job?
Show
young
people
that
success
is
a
process
and
that
even
if
your
first
job
is
not
in
your
chosen
field,
you
can
enter
that
field
later
and
skills
in
the
first
job
are
transferable.
Ask
well-‐
established,
successful,
and
well-‐known
South
Africans:
1)What
was
your
first
job?
2)
What
did
you
learn
from
that
experience?
For
example,
the
late
Chief
Justice
of
South
Africa,
Pius
Langa
started
work
in
a
shirt
factory.
2.
Problem:
Trades,
artisanship,
blue-‐collar
jobs,
and
working
with
one’s
hands
all
have
bad
images.
Yet,
these
jobs
provide
meaningful
work
with
dignity
that
can
enable
youth
to
become
productive
and
self-‐sustaining
members
of
society.
Potential
Campaign:
Master
your
fate.
Promote
the
master
artisan
and
master
craftsperson
trades.
This
is
consistent
with
the
language
of
that
world
where
phrases
used
are
"master
and
apprentice"
and
"master
artisan."
Having
mastery
-‐-‐
personal,
self,
and
professional
mastery
–
is
powerful
and
resonates
with
people.

3.
Problem:
Many
young
people
disrespect
their
parents
(grandparents,
caretakers)
because
they
were
not
educated.
Potential
Campaign:
Family
History
of
Education.
The
idea
here
is
to
launch
a
campaign
of
successful
people
who
indicate
that
they
were
first
generation
formally
educated
and
yet
they
respected
elders
who
were
not
so
educated.
Ask
them:
1)
what
is
the
educational
background
of
your
parents
or
the
people
who
raised
you?
2)
why
do
you
respect
them?
