Assistant Director at the Ministry of Youth and Sport, Muma Mukupa, disclosed this at the Junior Chamber International (JCI) induction ceremony at Mulungushi International Conference Center in Lusaka last evening.
Speaking on behalf of Ministry of Youth and Sport Permanent Secretary, Agness Musunga, Mr Mukupa said government wants to promote youth entrepreneurship that will create jobs for other youths in the country.
He said over 1,000 jobs have since being created by the youth business ventures that his ministry had funded.
He also announced that his ministry had finalised the review of the National Youth Policy intended to effectively address youth problems and with support from its development partners is developing a National Youth Employment Strategy which will be used to develop solutions to address the high youth unemployment levels.
