However, unemployment, limited educational opportunities, and scant access to mentorship and skills training pose significant hurdles to youth development. At BDI, we believe in the power of the youth to drive Liberia’s future. Our Youth Development program is strategically designed to address these issues and unlock the potential of our young people. We focus on ensuring access to quality education and providing vocational and skills training to adequately prepare young people for the job market and various entrepreneurship opportunities.
We are committed to bridging the gap between potential and opportunity by assisting youth in finding employment or establishing their businesses, providing mentorship, and connecting them to vital financial resources and networks. We understand that today’s youth are tomorrow’s leaders, and we strive to cultivate the skills and attitudes necessary for effective leadership.
Our approach to youth development is holistic, addressing the unique health needs of adolescents and young adults. This includes mental health, sexual and reproductive health, and substance abuse prevention. We also recognize the importance of sports and recreation, promoting these activities to improve physical fitness, build teamwork, and foster a sense of belonging.
In a digital age, we ensure that young people have opportunities to learn and apply digital skills. We promote their participation in science and technology and harness the power of technology to enhance their learning experiences and employability. Furthermore, we engage the youth in environmental conservation and climate change mitigation efforts, reinforcing their active role in sustainable development.
We instill a sense of civic awareness and participation among our youth, encouraging volunteerism and fostering a sense of social responsibility. Our comprehensive program aims to mold a generation of empowered, skilled, and confident young people ready to take on future leadership roles.
