1. SWOT analysis of UNC (UAE-Nepal-Connect):
- STRENGTH: partners' expertise, youth' energy and human resources, biz network, more importantly diversity and tolerance.
- WEAKNESS: Sustainability of NEPAL YOUTH CLUSTER and funding are the highest priority.
- OPPORTUNITY: bringing in international expertise, cross-learning, explore gov. funding/grants, inviting innovation, seeking jobs, and developing leadership.
- THREAT: partnership credibility break-down, people drop out, excitement bubble(false hope not delivering outcomes), unseen gov. procedure.
