In many developing countries, youth often face a range of challenges, including limited job opportunities, lack of access to education and resources, and political instability. Despite these challenges, young people in these countries have the potential to be powerful agents of change and drive positive development in their communities. One way they can do this is by looking to “develop something” – whether it be a business, a social enterprise, or a new technology – to address local needs and challenges.

One key reason why it is important for youths in developing countries to look to ‘develop something’ is that it can provide them with a sense of purpose and meaning. Many young people in these countries may feel disillusioned and disconnected from their communities, but by working on a project or initiative that addresses a local need, they can feel a sense of ownership and pride in their work. This can also help to build their confidence and leadership skills, which can be crucial for their personal and professional development.

Another reason why ‘developing something’ can be valuable for young people in developing countries is that it can provide them with a source of income and financial independence. Many young people in these countries may struggle to find employment or may only have access to low-paying or informal work, which can make it difficult for them to support themselves and their families. By developing their own business or enterprise, they can create their own income and have more control over their financial futures.

In addition to the personal benefits, ‘developing something’ can also have a positive impact on the wider community. By addressing local needs and challenges, young people can contribute to the development and growth of their communities and help to create a better future for all. This can be especially important in developing countries where resources and opportunities may be limited, as it can help to create a sense of hope and possibility for the future.

‘Developing something’ can also be a way for young people in developing countries to have a voice and make their opinions and ideas heard. Many young people in these countries may feel that their opinions and perspectives are not valued, but by developing their own initiatives, they can demonstrate their creativity and expertise and contribute to the conversation about local and national issues.

There are many reasons why youths who live in developing countries should look to ‘develop something.’ By doing so, they can find purpose and meaning, create a source of income and financial independence, contribute to the development of their communities, and have a voice in shaping their futures.
