In order to combat the poverty as well as the unemployment, the researcher was trying to equip the youth with the necessities of skills and equipment to become the new entrepreneurs. However, developing entrepreneur is not an easy task. This study will discuss about the challenges in developing the entrepreneurial intention in unemployed youth in Indonesia. This study was done using an Action Research approach, involving 20 unemployed youths, and 10 key persons from the community. The results show that it is not easy to develop new entrepreneurs. In this regard, although a person is unemployed and equipped with the life skills so that they can use it to help themselves to become financial independent, but it appears that their expectations were more toward finding jobs and become employee in the company. It was also shown that the role of family, key stake holders in the community, government bodies, institutions, should be involved in terms of developing entrepreneurial intentions in order to enable the unemployed youth financially independent, and have different mind-sets about entrepreneurs
