  2. 1. Experience & Discover A. Identities of Unemployed Youth • Age: 14 – 29 • Gender: Male & Female • Education background: School-dropper, finished either 6th & 9th grade, high school and university graduate. • Family information: Low and middle class. • Philosophy: Education is not a good investment. • Beliefs & Traditions: Strongly obedient

  3. B. Effect of Unemployment on Youth in Cambodia: • People live under the poverty line. • The number of worker immigration has increased. • Youth are forced to do the job which neither is in their expertise nor in their dream. • Unemployment forces youth to commit crime and other wrong doings. • Depression and stress have been an issue among unemployed youth.

  4. C. Causes of Youth Unemployment in Cambodia: • Lack of functional and practical skills provided in the education system. • White-collar positions are preferably offered to expiate candidates. • Poverty offers youth no choice, but dropping out of school. • The urbanization process runs in a slow pace at the rural areas, providing less job opportunities for youth. • There is a lack of social and networking skills among those coming from countryside. • The practice of Nepotism still exists in Cambodian job market.

  5. 2. The Finding of Solution A. Solutions: • We believe in “butterfly effect”. In order to make big changes, we shall start from something small. Something within the community. • We are planning to create an organization under the title “Anti Youth Unemployment organization”, as a contributor to solve youth unemployment in Cambodia.

  6. B. What is Anti Youth Unemployment organization? • An independent and non-governmental youth organization. Working to solve youth unemployment issue in Cambodia by providing two assisting services to youth: a. Student Loans b. Recruitment Service

  7. a. Student Loans • It is found that because Cambodian youth is lack of practical skills and equal education that they failed to find a job for themselves. • AYU encourages youth to enroll in vocational training or even higher education by providing loans from 50% to 70% within a period of 2 years after graduation.

  8. b. Recruitment Service • After students have come to AYU for the loans, after their graduation, AYU will help them finding a suitable jobs through our networks: • NGOs • Governmental agencies • Private companies NOTICE: To promote the work of AYU, a radio program will be created to reach our target listener --- youth. Therefore, they will there is a hope!

  9. 3. Planned Results & Outcomes • Indicating the effects: • Radio program can reach more than 13 million people in Cambodia. • AYU expect to engage youth up to 9.8 million nationally equal to 70% of the total population14 million (the Human Rights Center at the University of California at Berkeley.) • The target group is from 18 – 29, both from rural area and the city, because radio is the most accessible information transmitter.

  10. B. The desired outcomes: • People/Parents realize the essence of the education and the relation with prospective job. • The number of school enrollment increases by borrowing from our loans. • Young people with practical skills and fresh graduates can find a job through our recruitment service. • The rate of unemployment decreases • No more people living under the poverty line.
