A young active nation is of utmost importance to the economy of a country. The younger population is considered to be the future of any country and a significant driver of economic growth. They bring new energy, ideas, and innovation to the workforce and create a ripple effect on the economy. A young and active population creates a vast potential market for businesses and leads to a high consumer demand. This demand drives businesses to increase production, thereby creating more job opportunities and contributing to the growth of the country’s economy.

Additionally, a young and active population is more likely to be highly educated and have a better understanding of the latest technologies, which leads to increased productivity and innovation. The younger generation is also more likely to be entrepreneurial, creating new business opportunities that stimulate economic growth. They are likely to take risks and invest in new ventures, which in turn increases the country’s GDP.

Furthermore, a young and active population has a positive impact on the country’s social welfare programs. As they are still in their prime, they are less likely to depend on government welfare programs, which translates to lower public expenditures. This, in turn, allows the government to allocate more funds to other essential sectors such as infrastructure, education, and healthcare. Consequently, this leads to an overall improvement in the standard of living, which results in a better quality of life for the citizens.

They also help reduce government expenditures on social welfare programs, allowing more funds to be allocated to other essential sectors. A young and active population is, therefore, an essential resource for any country that seeks to achieve sustainable economic growth and development.
