What do teenagers need to know about innovation and its forms
Pakistan will continue to be a younger country for the next three decades. Teenagers are a "critical agent" for change. But why is the emphasis on young people only? Because of their motivations that drive them to change the world, desire to solve the problems, and aspirations to own ventures.
Teens go through an intensive process of change and Identity development. Therefore, it's an ideal phase of life to develop a sense of empowerment and enable them to innovate. To make this publication an enabling space, we work on the following outcomes:
