Junior Achievement USA reposted this
Underserved youth with limited access to education and employment opportunities face significant challenges in creating sustainable livelihoods. On the side of the UN General Assembly and the Summit of the Future, together with JA Worldwide and Junior Achievement USA and fantastic youth advocates, we looked at how we can strengthen and scale ecosystems and partnerships, integrate youth voices, and share best practices globally to support young visionaries in turning their projects into reality, like Odyek in Uganda (video ⬇). By harnessing the power of multi-sector partnerships, we can amplify our collective efforts and create impactful opportunities that empower and support young people in reaching their full potential. #EnablingSocialEquity #EmpowerYouth #YoungEntrepreneurs
