The Importance of Sustainable Youth Development Initiatives in Pakistan
Sustainable youth development initiatives matter because Pakistan has a very large young population and too few reliable routes from learning to earning. A one-day workshop rarely changes that. Programs that combine practical training, real work experience, mentoring and follow-up give young people a better shot at an income, whether that comes from a job, freelancing […]
YES Pakistan’s Mission to Turn Youth Potential Into Real Opportunities
Youth empowerment turns potential into opportunity when a young person gains a practical skill, proves it through real work, finds someone who can guide or introduce them, and reaches finance or placements.

How to Find a Business Mentor in Pakistan and Make the Most of Mentorship
Most young founders in Pakistan do not stall for lack of ideas. They stall on questions nobody around them has answered: how to price an order, whom to hire first, when to borrow. A mentor who has already faced those questions can shorten the guesswork. This guide explains how to find a business mentor in […]
YES Pakistan and the Future of Youth Development in Pakistan
Pakistan has one of the youngest populations in the world, and what happens to those young people will shape the country’s economy for decades. Youth development in Pakistan comes down to a practical question: will a growing workforce find productive work? YES Pakistan, an initiative of Al Sadat Group, approaches that question through internships, skills […]
How Can Pakistan Turn Its Young Population Into an Economic Advantage?
Pakistan can turn its young population into an economic advantage only if young people can find productive work. That takes four things working together: schooling that teaches children to read and reason, skills employers will pay for, access to finance and professional networks, and an economy that creates enough jobs. The numbers are large. The […]
