Tanzania is encouraging its youth to enter the green economy, focusing on renewable energy, carbon trading, and climate-smart agriculture. The government aims to reduce unemployment by leveraging the global transition to sustainable industry, with a specific focus on solar energy and waste recycling. Minister Hamad Yussuf Masauni highlighted the need for local ownership of carbon projects to ensure revenues benefit Tanzanian communities rather than foreign investors. The initiative includes expanding internships through the National Environment Management Council to bridge the skills gap for university graduates.
