What it is and why it is Needed Today?

Youthineering is a concept developed by Dr Mohamed Buheji to focus on using Youth energy and spirit in solving communities problems. Since youth is a unique period in any human life, where it is time for our optimum curiosity and early productivity. Youthineering, as a concept was used by the international inspiration economy project (IIEP) to solve socio-economic problems through optimising the intrinsic resources within the targeted youth communities. Youthineering focuses on transforming the youth mindset in the beneficiary communities from ‘youth of capital-based economy’ to ‘youth economy creators’. Then, developing the services relevant to youth according to structured programs (i.e. offering structured sustainable youth education, care, development, etc.) that lead to the advancement of youth contribution to their community.

Figure (1) here summaries the approaches that help to involve and then engage youth in solving the most complex challenges, today and in the foresighted future.

The applied researches presented in the ‘Youthineering’ book show how the increase of realisation of youth economy would transform us into a better world, with less poverty and more opportunities while addressing both youth development and advancement.

‘Youthineering’ a concept worth trying, testing and dialoguing about for communities that would like to differentiate themselves today and the foresighted future.
