“The first cohort of graduate youth is part of a much bigger group of applicants to the programme-over three thousand(3000) and no doubt many more out there.The inner relatedness of the bottlenecks to youth employment and employability calls for cross-sectoral policies and programmes that attend to these issues,” said the UNDP Resident Representative when speaking during the graduation of the trainees at the University of Eswatini(UNESWA) on Thursday morning.
