Youth Employment

A panel on ‘Productive work for youth’ met during the EU Dev Days in November 2013 to discuss how to get young people, particularly in developing countries, into quality jobs.

Three experts spoke with capacity4dev about an online module developed by Hewlett-Packard to impart business and ICT skills to young entrepreneurs in developing countries. Other topics included the obstacles to starting a new company, and the importance of small and medium enterprises to development.
