At a time when more than 75 million young people are unemployed worldwide, promoting an entrepreneurial mindset and culture, unleashing entrepreneurial and innovative capabilities of young people and boosting their role in society has become more important than ever.
The British Council vision is one where employers are fully engaged in skills development and young people have the skills needed, not just to support economic prosperity, but to tackle future international challenges. We use the themes of skills and enterprise to develop international collaboration and support social and economic development, to give young people new opportunities, higher aspirations and a greater global perspective, and prepare them better for the world of work and enterprise.
These booklets present inspirational stories of young people from Pakistan we worked with to enable them to be more creative and self-confident, to encourage innovative business start-ups and to enhance their role in society, such as tackling critical problems in their local communities. These young people became socially minded entrepreneurs who understand the positive impact they can make to society, by using creative and innovative approaches to promote social inclusion and prosperity. Each of these entrepreneurs is a passionate role model for many other young people, encouraging them to foster their entrepreneurial talent for wider community and societal benefit. We believe you will find the stories in this booklet inspirational, powerful and exciting and we hope they will encourage potential entrepreneurs to go for it!
