Description
The objective of this project is to create a positive cycle for talent and workforce development that can further contribute to inclusive economic growth and regional prosperity. Through the sharing of best practices in innovative entrepreneurship education, female empowerment projects, women's participation in STEM, and other relevant topics, policymakers and training institutions who will contribute directly to potentially gain skills and practical experiences for youths will have the opportunity to acquire valuable skills and gain practical experiences. This will enable them to better prepare for the current and future job market. Moreover, the project aims to equip women and young entrepreneurs with the necessary skills and knowledge to become future entrepreneurs, leading to the establishment of sustainable and inclusive businesses. Ultimately, this initiative will result in the creation of a more diverse and inclusive range of job opportunities within the region.
