More than twenty-five young entrepreneurs have attended one-day training on business management skills, conflict resolution and medium enterprises in Mayen-Ulem of Aweil North County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training aimed to restore livelihood and productive capacities as part of an integrated recovery and resilience response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was organized by Empower Youth Africa through support from UNDP and Sweden Sverige\u2019s efforts under the theme \u201cYouth Dare for Peace\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yom Jel Agou, one of beneficiaries, said he learned a lot of business skills before this training but nothing has changed but now he sees opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI really did not approach my business with a plan. In this past week, I\u2019ve learned how successful entrepreneurs act and how to apply those lessons. I now see opportunities all over instead of obstacles,\u201d Agou said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI know the concept of initiative seeking, and how to approach someone with resources with a plan for how I will make a profit, I am now saving money every day and I have a plan for the future,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agou expressed optimism that next year his goal of investment will expand as he plans to have three additional motorbikes, restaurant as well as to establish shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Agou noted that the training taught him a lot, asserting that if you are committed and persistent person you plan and break down your plans into manageable pieces and the goals can be achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, a 32 year old woman, Atak Akech Garang appreciated the organization for the training adding that she gained a lot of experience and knowledge, and stimulated her talents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve heard from the trainees that the experience has been so intense, you don\u2019t sleep for days. We, as retailers, encourage your training program not to stop in Aweil; we encourage your persistence and your goal setting. This training and your entrepreneurship show that Aweil is a calm State and Aweil is a peaceful town,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Manager of Empower Youth Africa Program, Anyuon Piol Tong said: \u201cOur vision is not only to have small businesses sprout in one county but we want to see these businesses grow, build, employ people, and hopefully spread beyond Aweil, beyond the region, beyond South Sudan, and to become truly global.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
