## What the grant funds

Based on funding availability, this project will provide training for 100 young entrepreneurs and provide them with knowledge and resources to engage in the digital economy. The project aims to mitigate the lack of training opportunities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and the Newly Merged Districts (NMDs) in areas such as online content creation and monetization.
