— August 12, 2024
KARACHI (AIA) The government of Sindh has launched a comprehensive free training program designed to empower the youth across the province. This initiative will offer specialised training in freelancing, computer skills, driving, vocational development, and the arts at the district level, according to a communiqué issued on Monday.
Sindh Minister for Agriculture and Sports Sardar Muhammad Bux Mahar has announced that the program is expected to benefit thousands of young people throughout the year. This effort builds on the successful effort by the Youth Department last year, which trained 25,000 individuals in various skills.
On International Youth Day, the Minister highlighted the vision of PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, emphasising the importance of equipping every young person in Sindh with the skills needed for economic independence. “The Sindh government is committed to overcoming the challenges faced by our youth and views them as a critical asset to our society,” Mahar stated.
In addition to training youth, the provincial government is focused on creating employment opportunities for young individuals across different sectors. The youth department will provide financial support to registered organisations to further assist the province’s youth. This program aims to enhance the employability of Sindh’s youth, support their professional development, and contribute to the overall advancement of the province.
