Decent Jobs for Youth focuses on interventions that are locally owned, aligned with national development priorities, and based on rigorous evidence of what works in different contexts. Our work is clustered around eight thematic priorities that present immediate and long-term opportunities to tackle the global youth employment challenge.
We are an impact-driven alliance seeking to improve quality and quantity of jobs for young people. We enable real progress by promoting human rights, fostering gender equality and strengthening public-private cooperation and coherence. Our approach is coordinated and comprehensive, and we actively engage young people to better understand their diverse needs. We support innovative and evidence-based action and promote investments that create both immediate benefits and sustainable positive impact for young people everywhere.
