The world is facing historic unemployment levels and the problem has become even more serious over the last two years. The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and global automation are making it more difficult for the world’s 1.3 billion young people to find work.
To understand the crisis, here are some insightful facts.
- The population of youth in the age group of 15 to 24 increased 30% from 1999 to 2019, but their “labor force participation” rate globally declined by almost 12%.
- Youth jobs are at risk due to automation. A survey of CEOs discovered that 36% of CEOs are increasingly looking for process automation to boost productivity.
- And around one-quarter of youth who are 18 to 24 lost their job during the pandemic, and many saw their salary trimmed because they were working in highly affected sectors.
While the crisis continues globally, youth are resorting to self-employment. According to a new survey, a majority of respondents chose to start their own business instead of seeking employment at corporations.
Today’s youth want to earn by providing services or products to people in their communities. They are fast resorting to local business, catering to the needs of people in their cities, and communities.
Entrepreneurship is a viable path for youth. According to the survey, they were happier and more fulfilled at work, while living with their family, their people, in their culture.
To empower todays youth, many organizations along with governments provide specially designed youth business entrepreneurship programs such as Wharton global youth program, BIZNOVATOR camps – leading youth entrepreneur camps that aim to empower youth and develop their entrepreneur skills. The program is designed to provide experiences that focus on the creation, development, and start-up of a business or social venture. The summer entrepreneurial camps and workshops provide an opportunity for youth to learn and develop entrepreneurial and leadership skills and business acumen in an innovative and engaging environment.
Essentials of entrepreneurship programs for youth aim at providing an immersive experience that challenges students to engage with peers, use innovative thinking, and learn the fundamentals of becoming a successful entrepreneur.
