Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Educational events such as workshops, seminars, career fairs, and skill-building programs play a vital role in youth development by fostering learning, career growth, and personal empowerment. In Bida Local Government Area, Niger State, these events are increasingly recognized as tools for addressing challenges such as unemployment, skill gaps, and limited access to quality education. Educational events provide platforms for youth to acquire practical skills, network with mentors, and gain exposure to diverse career opportunities. Recent literature highlights the role of community-based educational events in promoting youth empowerment and reducing socioeconomic disparities (Ahmed & Usman, 2023; Bello et al., 2024). However, the effectiveness of these events in Bida is often limited by logistical challenges, lack of funding, and insufficient participation. This study examines the contribution of educational events to youth development in Bida LGA, emphasizing their impact on skill acquisition and personal growth.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
Despite the growing importance of educational events in youth development, their impact in Bida LGA remains underexplored. Many events face challenges such as poor attendance, inadequate funding, and lack of skilled facilitators, which undermine their potential to drive meaningful change. Additionally, the absence of follow-up mechanisms limits the long-term benefits of these events for participants. This study seeks to investigate the role of educational events in youth development, identifying challenges and proposing strategies for improvement in Bida LGA.
