The transitional government has been urged to avail resources through the Youth Enterprise Fund, that is provided for in the revitalized peace agreement.  The fund is mandated to serve as a mechanism through which young people can access financing from the government and partners to empower themselves economically and improve their livelihoods. Gak Malek is the founder of the BEATec, an incubation and acceleration firm that focuses on building start-ups and Small & Medium Enterprises in South Sudan. He says many young people have innovative ideas but are unable to implement them due to lack of financial resources.
