Youth Enterprise:
There are not enough jobs for many young men and women within the public and private sector.

Self-employment especially for the youth should be supported by the government, private sector and non-government organisations.

Objectives of Youth Enterprise:

  • to establish an entrepreneurial support strategy to help young people start and manage their own business;
  • to promote youth enterprise as a career option;
  • to ensure youth enterprise development programmes address the main problems facing young people.

The National Youth Policy proposes that self-employment as a career option and 'enterprise education' become a part of education and training institutions. This will help young people to understand and consider self-employment as a career option.
