The Ministry of Commerce organized a one-day Virtual E-Commerce Youth Conference in collaboration with Kamyab Jawan Program and USAID PREIA.
The objective of the conference was to give Pakistan’s youth a platform to share their recommendations that can assist the government in improving its implementation of the National E-Commerce policy to achieve its objective of youth empowerment through e-commerce.
The National E-Commerce policy and the Kamyab Jawan Program were both launched by the Prime Minister in October 2019 and aim to leverage the digital economy for the empowerment of Pakistan’s youth. The national e-commerce policy, under its pillar “Empowering Youth and SMEs through e-commerce,” aims to collaborate with the Government to run special initiatives, such as the Kamyab Jawan Program, to achieve its policy goal of extending access to finance and digital skills to Pakistan’s youth and SMEs.
