This project aims to connect 4.6 million youth to skills development and job opportunities through Generation unlimited’s digital initiatives that equip youth for a better world. The initiative fosters skills development, online safety, and inclusive platforms for networking and accessing opportunities. It prepares youth for the rapidly evolving technology landscape, where artificial intelligence and innovation are redefining the future of work. The gender-responsive digital initiatives address systemic gender barriers, including lack of digital literacy, limited internet access, and stereotypes that discourages girls from pursuing tech and tech-enabled careers. The initiative aims to focus on three key pillars of Generation unlimited’s programming framework. This includes digital platforms for career development, digital skilling platform, and technology-based agribusiness program.

The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) increased digital literacy among young women and men; (2) improved access to education and skills development; (3) increased entrepreneurship and job creation; and (4) improved access to agribusiness opportunities for young women and men.
