The document proposes a mandatory internship program in Bangladesh to address youth unemployment among recent graduates. It identifies key causes of unemployment like a mismatch between education and job demands, lack of experience, and cultural factors. The solution is a 6-month internship targeting 1000 social science graduates to provide work experience, increase skills, and challenge social norms. Implementing agencies would include universities, corporations, NGOs, and government bodies. Outcomes would be work experience, increased skills, practical knowledge, and challenging social and gender issues.
