👩🏾‍🎓👨🏾‍💼 Youth employment: a strategic lever

In Senegal, youth unemployment remains a central issue. Yet, these young people are a source of wealth: dynamic, ambitious, and capable of finding solutions. To address this challenge, it is imperative to strengthen professional integration through:

• The development of key skills, adapted to current economic realities;

• Equal opportunities in access to employment;

• Encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation.

⚠️ Challenges to overcome

The main obstacle remains the mismatch between training and market needsToo many young people struggle to find employment due to a lack of practical qualifications or appropriate guidance. Furthermore, psychological barriers—demotivation and uncertainty about the future—are realities that should not be overlooked.

✅ Possible solutions

At GHS SUARL, we believe in a shared commitment between public, private and educational stakeholders to:

• Strengthen academic and professional guidance from secondary school;

• Develop apprenticeships and work-study programs to link training and field experience;

• Promoting youth entrepreneurship through mentoring and funding programs;

• Reduce tax burdens on companies that recruit young graduates.

🤝 A day of exchanges and proposals

On May 1st, we will have the honor of welcoming several guest experts who will share their perspectives and solutions on youth employment. This will be a powerful opportunity for exchanges, constructive debates, and commitments.

💬 Together, let's prepare for the future

Because young people are our future, GHS SUARL is renewing its commitment to their sustainable professional integration. By leveraging their potential, we are investing in a fairer, more competitive, and more humane future.
