YOUTH employability and economic empowerment are fundamental components that can help them make informed decisions of their future life.
The Marketing Manager for Ubongo
Learning, Iman Lipumba, said in Dar es Salaam yesterday that equipping
youth with skills, knowledge and resources can increase their
competitiveness in the labour market.
“With skills, knowledge and resources
youth can enter into meaningful and sustainable employment or
entrepreneurship that has sustainable income-generating potential,” she
said in the youth event organised by Ubongo Learning, a non-profit
organisation.
The event was centred on research and
findings concerning youth employability and economic empowerment,
especially for adolescent girls who are more likely to be negatively
affected by future changes in the job market than boys.
“The goal of the project which is funded
by Data for Local Impact (DLI) is to educate youth, especially
adolescent girls and young women on how to use easily accessible data to
make informed decisions about their future, especially through key
financial literacy skills,” she said
