ISLAMABAD: Punjab Skills Development Fund (PSDF) and Generation have joined forces to address the challenges being faced by the young people who are seeking to connect with the job market, a statement said on Saturday.

Together, the two leading organisations will bring a proven, innovative model — the Generation programme — to Pakistan, it added.

The partnership would launch a joint programme in Lahore, expanding to additional locations in the future, to reach 2,500 young adults with the Generation programme during the pilot phase.

The two organisations are currently evaluating the sectors and professions to target, including garments industry, healthcare, financial services, customer service, and digital jobs, the statement said.

The new programme will seek to partner with local and national employers in the target sectors to identify job vacancies and deliver great talent, it added.
