The rapid pace of technological development in the new knowledge economy has created increasingly more powerful ICTs and increasing demand on workers with advanced (ICT) skills. However, just because the technology is available does not mean everyone can get the training and develop skills in it. Those who cannot access necessary information and training, and cannot keep up with technological revolution will be left behind and vulnerable as knowledge economy has already wreaked havoc in unskilled and semi-skilled employment (Hull 2003).
Microsoft YouthSpark is a global initiative to increase access for all youth to learn computer science, empowering them to achieve more for themselves, their families and their communities.
Years ago, Microsoft in its passion to take IT to the reach of every youth globally especially AFRICA launched Microsoft YouthSpark, a cross-company initiative that created educational, employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for more than 300 million youth around the world. Triumphant Youth Foundation will promote this great initiative by providing opportunities to the less privileged youth in our communities to learn computer science and bridge the gap with the privileged as well as gain decent jobs
Agriculture is important to the development of any nation Nigeria inclusive, in this note Triumphant Youth Foundation Seek to change the negative perception the youth have of participation in agriculture, (farmers) as uneducated, unskilled, physical labourers with extremely low economic return. Modern agriculture is more than tilling the soil and animals. We shall work with stakeholders to offer career opportunities in research, environment, financial management, engineering and other technical areas for the youths as well as to explore ways of establishing Youth in Agriculture Programme (YIAP) for students that will lure youths to get involved in the sector.
The introduction of the Youth in Agriculture Programme (YIAP) is necessary and vital to facilitate food and nutrition security because of the following reasons but not limited to:
- The poor image of persons involved in agriculture, especially in the rural communities needs to be changed and the youths are the ideal catalysts of such change given their greater prosperity and willingness to adapt new ideas, concept and technology which are all important to changing the way agriculture is practiced and perceived.
- Increased employment particularly rural employment is required as youths unemployment is on the increase.
- YIAP will provide productive alternatives for the engagement of the youths to reduce crime and other social problems.
- Diversified, modern farming practices.
- New crop varieties and animal strains/breeds.
- Reduction in rural-urban migration.
