Episode notes

A new Afrobarometer survey shows that only 19% of Namibians aged 18 to 35 would choose entrepreneurship, ranking the country last among 38 African nations surveyed, at a time of persistently high youth unemployment.

Speaking to Desert FM, Mox Kenaumue, regional chairperson of the Kunene Youth forum and an Opuwo Town Council councillor, unpacks what these findings mean for young people, particularly in rural and regional areas.
