Meet Itani Selae, a masters student from Stellenbosch University. He studies Sustainable Agriculture but wanted to challenge himself to diversify his knowledge and gain a broader knowledge of sustainability through Future17. His project allowed him to work with Kensing and study the sustainable manufacture of Vitamin E and phytosterols. The project challenged him at several points but allowed him to grow and gain real world experience.

Mbali Thando Ngobese, a Health Systems student at Stellenboch University, undertook the Future17 SDG Challenge as a way of learning about sustainability and expanding her skillset. Her project, researching sustainable solutions and helping to design a living laboratory at Cornwall Airport Newquay, took her out of her comfort zone but provided an invaluable opportunity for personal growth, career expansion and the ability to be a part of something meaningful.
