Twenty young entrepreneurs from the Asutifi South District in the Ahafo Region have undergone a business enhancement training in Hwidiem aimed at boosting their enterprises and addressing youth unemployment in the district.
The two-day training was organized by the National Youth Authority (NYA) in collaboration with the National Developing Programme and the African Continental Free Trade Area.
Speaking to Adom News, the District Director for NYA, Roger Obeng Agyekum, highlighted that the program was designed to equip the entrepreneurs with effective strategies to grow their businesses.
The training is expected to enable participants to generate higher incomes and provide employment opportunities for others, thereby contributing to the fight against youth unemployment in the area.
Mr. Obeng Agyekum also mentioned that after this initial training, the young entrepreneurs would undergo additional processes, with some likely to receive awards from the National Developing Programme and the African Continental Free Trade Area.
Some beneficiaries expressed their gratitude to the organizers, acknowledging the value of the lessons learned, which they believe will have a positive impact on their business growth.
