In 2007, Bangladesh faced a demographic dividend with 1.6 million youth lacking education, employment, or training. To address this, BRAC launched an apprenticeship program for school dropouts, which officially evolved into the BRAC Skills Development Programme (SDP) in 2015. Today, SDP spans 26 projects offering market-aligned skills, entrepreneurship training linked with microfinance, and career counseling. Aligning with national policies and UN SDGs, the program promotes deep inclusivity, even adapting to 100% online training during the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, SDP has empowered over 428,000 marginalized individuals—including women, disabled, and transgender people. With a high job placement rate, the program has proven to be a transformative socio-economic force, successfully reducing child marriage, boosting household incomes, and supporting a prosperous future for Bangladesh.
