Angeu became a budding entrepreneur in high school when she began making
fried savory chips, called seblak, and selling them to her classmates.

At age 19, she signed up to participate in a Mercy Corps’ program that
supports young women in learning about gender equity and equips them with
business and entrepreneurship skills.

Through this training, Angeu learned how to take her seblak snack business
online with an innovative digital platform that connects her more easily
with customers — and has increased her sales and profits.

Angeu starts her day with prayers at 4:30 a.m. followed by housecleaning,
laundry, cooking, and caring for her grandmother and younger siblings. In
the afternoon, she focuses on making her snack chips and packing orders.


As World Youth Skills Day approaches this Saturday, we are recognizing the
importance of equipping young people like Angeu with the skills they need
to support themselves, their families, and their futures.
