- description:
- The recent intervention with the Department of Social Development was a useful approach to promote entrepreneurship among youth because it engaged them to participate based on their interest in social enterprises, rather than an attraction to being funded or some other "free" benefit. The young people were instead trained in terms of working together and establishing different types of businesses, including social enterprises. Thereafter, because the ILO was focusing specifically on the establishment of social enterprises, those that were interested were invited to participate further in the ILO training. This resulted in a self-selection process where those that came forward did this because they were interested in community service and not because they thought they were going to get money.
