“Unemployment and Terrorism” TED Talk by Mohamed Ali
In this TED talk, Ali explores the relationship between unemployment and terrorism. Unemployment is one of the challenges facing young people in big cities around the world. As young people pursue their dreams of creating wealth and attaining their goals, they encounter many obstacles that cause frustration and push them to find alternative ways to achieve their objectives. One of the alternatives that many young people explore is joining terrorist groups and other violent organizations (Ali, 2013).

Ali incorporates stories from his native country to support his arguments and explain why it is important to help young people avoid the deadly trap. Terrorist groups lure young people into their organization using money and other incentives (Ali, 2013). They help them take care of their families and find purpose in their lives. Ali argues that inspiring young people and encouraging entrepreneurship is an effective strategy to caution unemployed youths from recruitments by terrorist groups. He urges everyone to incubate and nurture young people’s innovations and empower them to embrace entrepreneurship (Ali, 2013).
