Over recent years, students from Balochistan have increasingly benefited from and distinguished themselves in international and UN-partnered programs.
For example, the Gwadar Institute of Technology, in collaboration with UNDP, ran a four-month technical training course where youth from various districts gained skills in areas such as port handling and repair maintenance.
Those who successfully completed the course received certification expected to improve their employment prospects.
Another success story is “Digital Libas,” a social enterprise from Quetta, which won the UNDP-Jazz SDG Bootcamp.

The bootcamp was designed to nurture social entrepreneurship, expand startup capacity, and train participants in marketing, finance, digital transformation, and scaling business models.
Almost half of the participating enterprises were led by women, and the winners have gone on to compete at the national level.
Balochistan students and youth have the ability to perform well when given access to quality training and support.
Foreign or international partnerships (UNDP, Jazz, UNHCR etc.) are helping fill gaps in skills training, infrastructure, and opportunity.
Such programs not only improve technical skills, but also help with confidence, exposure, and networking — factors that help in further education, entrepreneurship, or employment.

Still, there remain challenges: ensuring access for youth in very remote or underserved areas; maintaining follow-up support so that training leads to actual job or business outcomes; and expanding such initiatives so they become more widespread and sustainable.
