Task Of Job Creation

As Nepal is struggling to get economy back on an even keel, widespread unemployment has posed a serious problem to achieve inclusive growth. Ironically, the joblessness has soared at a time when the country enjoys demographic dividend - working age population is more than 65 per cent. As a result, around 3,000 youths leave the country every day in search of better employment prospect abroad. It shows the state's inability to provide job to them. The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 8 underscores the vital link between inclusive economic growth and employment. It is crucial, as poverty eradication hinges on the availability of stable, well-paid jobs.
