The Ministry of Technology and Science has officially launched an online entrepreneurship training programme aimed at equipping young Zambians with the skills and mindset to create jobs and contribute to the country's socio-economic transformation.
Speaking at the launch, Permanent Secretary Eng. Dr. Brilliant Habeenzu described the programme as a timely intervention to empower youth with practical, market-oriented skills in business development.
Zambia faces high youth unemployment, with levels estimated between 17 and 20. More than 60 of the population is under the age of 25, and over 90 of young entrepreneurs operate in the informal sector without adequate access to skills, finance, or markets.
