Story behind this
initiative
In Bangladesh, a significant portion of the population, particularly the youth, faces unemployment or underemployment due to a lack of relevant skills. Despite their potential, many individuals are unable to access the training needed to secure stable jobs or start their own businesses, leaving them trapped in cycles of poverty.
Jonoshakti’s Skill Development program is designed to bridge this gap by offering targeted training and education that align with market needs. By providing individuals with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed, we help them unlock new opportunities and achieve economic independence.
Our approach goes beyond traditional education, focusing on practical skills that can be directly applied in the workforce or in entrepreneurial ventures. Whether through vocational training, digital literacy courses, or entrepreneurship programs, Jonoshakti is committed to empowering individuals to build a better future for themselves and their communities.
Brief Summary
Skill development is at the heart of economic empowerment. Jonoshakti offers training and skill-building programs aimed at improving employability and entrepreneurship opportunities for youth and marginalized communities.
Why it's important
Bangladesh has one of the largest youth populations in the world, yet many young people lack the skills necessary to thrive in an increasingly competitive job market. A report by Prothom Alo (2022) highlights that nearly 29% of the country’s youth are either unemployed or underemployed due to a lack of adequate skills training. Without intervention, this can lead to a lost generation unable to contribute to the nation’s economic growth.
Why it needs attention
Skills are the building blocks of a prosperous future. By investing in vocational training, technical education, and digital skills, Jonoshakti is helping individuals gain meaningful employment. Equipping people with relevant skills allows them to rise above poverty, gain independence, and contribute to the economic development of their communities.
