Who we are

A nonprofit built for tomorrow's leaders

Youth Empower Program (YEP) is a nonprofit youth organisation of Bangladesh. Our Virtual Internship programs and completely free training sessions are open to university students from every university across Bangladesh, helping them become genuinely job-ready wherever they study.

Inside our internships, participants work on academic research, market research, startup research, and real IT project building — while developing the human side of professional life: team management, critical thinking, time management, presentation skills, public speaking, and emotional intelligence.

Our mission — to develop leadership among young people, nurture entrepreneurship, and push the next generation forward in research and innovation.
