ISLAMABAD (Lord Media): According to a report by the United Nations Population Fund, 76% of Pakistani youth are optimistic about the future. Released on World Population Day, the report states that Pakistan’s population has reached approximately 257.2 million, with one-third of the population aged between 10 and 24 years.<\/p>\n
The report highlights that Pakistan’s future depends on the opportunities, decisions, and capabilities of its youth. While 76% of young people are hopeful about the future, 53% are concerned about security, economic issues, and inequality. Rural youth face challenges due to a lack of internet access.<\/p>\n
The United Nations Population Fund has called for teaching digital skills to youth and providing them with good job opportunities.
