Youth Entrepreneurship Development

Youth Entrepreneurship Development through Vocational Technical Training

This multi media presentation, prepared in cooperation with Radio Afrika International (RAI), describes UNIDO's Youth Entrepreneurship Development Programme (YED), which is managed by the Private Sector Development Branch, as a core programme contributing to wealth creation, vocational technical training and job creation, private sector development, peace and sustainability.

This effort supports young men and women of developing countries in their aspirations for entrepreneurial success.

Reducing urban and rural disparities as well as gender inequalities in technical training for business opportunities are crucial elements for wealth building strategies employed in developing areas, such as in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The YED Programme in Sudan, in particular in Malakal, aims at promoting technical skills training for empowering people to develop the local business environment. The information material presented herewith consists of four segments -- four radio-features on 2 CDs, as well as audio-visual presentations on one DVD.

This material is inspired by a management development workshop held in August 2007 in Khartoum, Sudan. This was a unique collaboration between participants from vocational technical training centres (VTCs), UNIDO experts and other future managers of VTCs in other regions (i.e. Wau, Juba, Khartoum).
