Unlocking opportunities – youth friendly business registration | MorningAtNTV

On this National Youth Day, our theme is “Unlocking Opportunities: Youth-Friendly Business Registration.” We’re here to discuss how young people can overcome challenges in formalizing their businesses — a critical step for accessing finance, creating jobs, and driving economic growth. According to the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS), over 78% of Uganda’s population is under 30, yet youth unemployment remains above 13% [UBOS 2023]. Many young people continue to turn to entrepreneurship, but business registration remains a major barrier.
