The Youth Dilemma!


The #youth prior to #covid19 were struggling to deal with growing up, paying for #education, #unemployment with or without education, peer pressure and poor public policy.

In two to three months, the whole world has been placed on notice to adhere to a #newnormall" that has come around with no living person having the "handbook".

How do we start to advise the youth when the mountain that they have to climb has moved from steep to vertical? Policy makers need to provide a critical look at the future pathways and provide a paradigm shift.

This paradigm shift will need to take brakes to previously lauded actions such as the fourth industrial revolution that looked at automation and a have high reliance on sustainable approaches to energy and food.

#agricultureandfarming need to be brought back as prestigious livelihoods so that for one, rural-urban migration can be stemmed by natural attrition. A serious push needs to be made for #freeeducation with utilisation of remote learning so that more youngsters can have access to #education.
