With approximately 60 percent of our youth struggling to find jobs, such events are imperative as they give our youth a wide array of options to choose from when they decide on their career paths,\u201dsaid Bulunga.<\/p>\n<p>He further mentioned that the Career Expo focuses on areas where there are urgent challenges and exciting potential for young people to take action in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals and the National Youth Policy of 2020.<\/p>\n<p>He said the four day Expo will enable the youth to access relevant resources and get exposed to the opportunities needed to reshape them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis Expo is characterised by discussions, skills-building deliberations, and networking, to name a few, which is a platform for the youth to rethink their goals and aspirations and to give them the much needed guidance which will channel their thoughts to career paths that will unleash their potentials,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to that, Bulunga said it pleases the Ministry to see different players join hands in youth empowerment, with different spheres of Government and state entities working in unison with other development partners to ensure impact-oriented performance.<\/p>\n<p>He said this will ensure a coherent service delivery and development outcomes, which will both immensely benefit our youth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
