Episode 15 - Scaling Impact: Empowering African Youth through the Scalable Employment Model (SEM)

  • Summary

  • With 80 million African youths trapped in extreme poverty and a significant disparity between job seekers (10 to 12 million) and available opportunities (only 3 million), unemployment pressures are overwhelming. Various challenges exacerbate this situation, including skills gaps, gender disparities, and a heavy reliance on the informal economy, where work is often insecure and vulnerable. Faced with such large numbers of disenfranchised and unemployed youth, the need for scalable solutions becomes paramount. In this episode, host Kevin Eustatia and guests Ahmed Darwish, Adekemi Ajayi, Bowofade Elegbede, and Osagie Azeta explore the Scalable Employment Model's potential to reshape Africa's economic landscape, diving into CFYE's SEM Call and highlighting the impactful work of Acumen and initiatives like CropSafe.
