Title: Green Thinking Hat: Creative Solutions for Reducing Youth Unemployment
Setting: A virtual brainstorming session with community leaders, educators, and youth representatives.
[Slide 1: Title Slide]
Narrator: (enthusiastically) Welcome everyone to our special brainstorming session on reducing youth unemployment! Today, we’ll embrace the Green Thinking Hat approach, focusing on creative solutions. Let’s dive in!

Narrator: First up, let's consider skill-sharing workshops. Picture a community-driven initiative where local professionals share their skills with young people. This could range from coding and graphic design to woodworking and culinary arts. Imagine the connections formed when youth learn directly from industry experts!

Narrator: Next, how about a mobile app dedicated to skill-building and job opportunities? This app could connect youth with internships, apprenticeships, and volunteer opportunities in a gamified way. Users earn points for completing skills training, leading to real-world job opportunities. Fun and educational!

Narrator: Let's get our hands dirty! Picture establishing community projects, like urban farming or community gardens. Here, youth can gain valuable teamwork skills while learning about sustainability and food production. Plus, there’s potential for creating a local food market!
[Slide 5: Image of a Digital Marketplace]
Narrator: Here’s another idea: a digital marketplace for youth entrepreneurs! Young people can display and sell their crafts, tech skills, or services. This online platform can also offer mentorship and business workshops, empowering them to be self-sufficient.
