The Busia County Cabinet has approved the Busia County Youth Development Policy, paving the way for enhanced youth empowerment, job creation and greater participation of young people in governance and development.
The approval marks a significant milestone in the county's efforts to address challenges facing the youth, including unemployment, limited access to opportunities and inadequate involvement in decision-making processes.
According to the Directorate of Youth Affairs, the policy provides a comprehensive framework that will guide youth development programmes and strengthen inclusion across the county.
