Entrepreneurship potentials of disadvantaged youth

Assessment of entrepreneurship potentials of disadvantaged youth in Masbate, Antique, Maguindanao and Agusan del Sur

Entrepreneurship is one option that is on top of everybody’s list when it comes to recommendations for stimulating employment in an otherwise job-starved environment. In four provinces highlighted in the study, youth entrepreneurship is still a frontier’s land and this is very much evident when describing the situation of disadvantaged youth.

The study was meant to explore the current situation of disadvantaged youth in four provinces (Masbate, Antique, Maguindanao and Agusan del Sur) and serve as an initial guide on potentials for entrepreneurship including the local business climate and its impact on entrepreneurship.
