Converting over-sized population into work force.

Abstract

The article "Converting Over-Sized Population into Workforce" addresses Bangladesh's demographic challenge of transforming its large population into a productive economic asset. The author analyzes how strategic investments in education, vocational training, and labor-intensive industries could harness the nation's human capital potential. Key focus areas include creating employment opportunities in manufacturing and services sectors, improving workforce skills to meet market demands, and developing policies to integrate youth and women into the formal economy. The analysis highlights successful models from other densely populated Asian nations while emphasizing the need for public-private partnerships to scale up job creation initiatives. The article concludes that proper human resource development and employment generation strategies could convert Bangladesh's population burden into a competitive advantage, driving sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction.
