Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Much has been said about the opportunities for economic and employment growth arising from India’s demographic dividend, with Modi’s “Make In India†programme taking centre stage in the discussion. However, the country faces the challenges of a lack of technical skills among its youth population. If India is to capitalise on the economic and productive potential of its burgeoning youth population, it will need to look to both Singapore and Japan in order to effectively impart technical skills to its youthful students and to those who are already employed.
