Abstract: In many African countries, young people face a lack of formal employment opportunities. Therefore, they need to explore and assume alternative livelihoods, such as entrepreneurship. Stakeholders and policymakers need to encourage and support these endeavours. An HSRC study provides key insights into what motivates graduate entrepreneurs to forge opportunities and futures for themselves and others.
