Ted talks, a non for profit organization, developed an initiative to reach out to young teenagers who were unemployed. The initiative was done after a series of meetings between the board members spearheading for the decision to help out teenagers from joblessness. The organization has created a website, which is set to be launched today in Newcastle, by the Minister of Planning, Rhodhek Tommy. The platform will be used by young teenagers to update on their status; immediately after finishing high school.
Ted Talk Job Securement plan under the website, www.tedtalkjobs.net
will offer a place where employers and young teens particularly within the age group of 19 to 25 will be meeting to share their ideas, which, in turn, would lead to employment of some jobless people. Mr. Rhodhek said: “The ted talk’s initiative is a good plan especially in solving the issues related to teenagers’ joblessness. The website will make it easy for our children to prosper at a young age and become competent worldwide.”
“We are still under research talks with the employment association members to foresee the working of this initiative and if the employers will like the move. Otherwise, the initiative is a very good idea in terms of information sharing.” In addition, the website will provide the links, which are associated with the ministry’s plans to eradicate joblessness in the community. The move will help solve problems such as substance addiction and abuse since the children will be actively participating in country affairs. “We must show them the way because we are leaders otherwise the trend will continue.” Said Mr. Rhodhek.
Ted Talks chairman spearheading the movement, Evans Kiln said the website on jobless eradication will be a common place where the employers and teens can meet and share out their grievances. “The teens must take advantage of this given that our work is very professional and known best worldwide. “ Mr. Kiln said: “Many non-profit platforms initiated to eradicate poverty end up dying due to corruption and mismanagement issues. The intended people who are supposed to get help are victimized.”
“We are looking forward to creating equality in the society where all persons count. The employers will be able to interact with teens in various fields of work to find out which of them suits their need.”
The platforms will, however, filter the applicants since the organization is mostly concerned with youngsters aged 19 to 25. The government’s concerns with youth affairs will be useful in the establishment of the concrete idea to solve problems faced in our midst.
Ted talks have gained a global reputation for their selfless work in ensuring a better society. The supporting organizations include Coordination Development Association (CDA) and the Youth Foundation Assistance (AFA).
