Restless Development

1. THE ENTREPRENEUR PANEL
BUSINESS WITHOUT BOUNDARIES

2. After attending a livelihood and enterprise training workshop with Restless Development
Andrew Kwaga went on to set up a livestock and fishing business so he could support himself
and his family. Andrew also began running a youth group in his community sharing what he
had learnt so that other young people could build upon their aspirations, and succeed like him.

3. Restless Development is the youth-led development agency. Based in
10 countries, our unique way of working gives young people the skills,
resources and opportunities to tackle the main issues facing their
communities, and countries, from unemployment and receiving a good
education to accessing sexual health and reproduction services.
For many young people, accessing the right training and skills to get
them employment ready is crucial in dealing with the issues standing
in the way of their own, and their communities, development. From
entrepreneur programmes, to employment training and intern schemes,
Restless Development’s work in this area is well-established but has
great opportunity for growth.
The Entrepreneur Panel is a group of like minded individuals committed to
supporting Restless Development’s Livelihoods programme. We believe
young people can be entrepreneurs and build successful businesses.
They are an asset to businesses and they hold the answer to the
unemployment crisis in their country. Support from The Entrepreneur
Panel will ensure we can continue to prove this and enable young people
to fulfil their potential.

efficient organisation. It’s a small agency with big impact.
By investing a little I have gained a lot, both in the impact of my donation

dynamic organisation. It definitely offers value for money”

That’s a lot of potential. However, many young people are

skills for employment. We are committed to deliver innovative
programmes that directly answer the needs of the young
people we serve. With support of The Entrepreneur Panel we
