Description: 12 leaves : illustrationsSubject(s): Online resources: Dissertation note: Public Management Development Program. Batch 3 Senior Executives Class. Thesis (SEC)--Development Academy of the Philippines. Summary: "Unemployment is the most efficient recruiter for gangs and criminal organizations". "The country's unemployment rate will go down by at least half if the youth unemployment is solved". These statements are enough to have more focused, concrete and effective solutions to address the rising number of unemployed youth in the province of Agusan Del Sur. Current firgure has 85,467 unemployed youth based on the 2012 Community Based Monitoring System (CBMS) of the Provincial Government of Agusan del Sur. Several programs have been implemented to combat the problem on youth unemployment but records would show that not much has been accomplished. Interventions were focused on youth wage employability through DOLE's Special Program for the Employment of Students (SPES), Working Youth Center-Youth Entrepreneurial Suppot (WYC-YES), YEYE and TESDA's Scholarship for Technical-Vocational Courses. While most of the placements facilitated by the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) are ito Local Government Units (LGUs) these job offers are all temporary and mostly are not available to the youth. These programs fell short in reducing the number of unemployed youth specifically in the province of Agusan del Sur due to the following: skills acquired did not match with the requirement of the local industries in the case of TESDA's program, and the lack of focused and institutionalized entrepreneurial preparatory activities in the case of the DOLE's interventions for the youth. Other government agencies have no specific interventions for the youth. Entrepreneurship among the youth should be given more emphasis and focus. This huge human capital of the province should take part in the development of the local economy by engaging them into enterprising endeavors. Banking on the youth's energy, enthusiasm, creativity and perseverance, offering them the entrepreneurship option is a sure way to combat unemployment among the youth.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Barcode | |
