It is globally recognized that a country’s sustainable development depends on the extensive contribution of the human capital. The youth are undoubtedly energetic, confident, creative, productive and the core driving force of any nation. With proper education, sound knowledge and expected level of integrity the youth is an asset for the society and they are capable of overcoming any challenge.
In Bangladesh, one third of the total population belongs to the youth. Youth are the most energetic and productive segment of the country. The national development mostly depends on their working spirit and initiatives. In Bangladesh, the number of economically active population or labor force (15+) is 56.7 million and youth labor force (aged 15-29) is 20.9 million which is one of the key reasons behind the country’s fast economic growth.
The history of our nation is enlightened by the heroic contribution of the youth. The youth of the country played a vital role in the language movement of 1952, the mass upsurge of 1969, the liberation war of 1971 and in all crises after liberation. And like always, at present the youth can play a pivotal role in creating a society free of terrorism, social injustice, exploitation, corruption and crime. For continuous development, Bangladesh needs the adequate number of efficient and honest youth who will lead the nation to a global standard. Only the right education with the practice of integrity can ensure the desired level of human capital.
