| Abstract: | The study was guided by three objectives namely: 1. to examine the influence of impairment on the creativity of youth entrepreneurs at Malengo Foundation, 2. to assess the influence of activity limitation on the productivity of youth entrepreneurs at Malengo Foundation, 3. to examine the influence of participation restriction on skills and market opportunities of youth entrepreneurs at Malengo Foundation. |
