Youth Employment Inventory

Youth joblessness and underemployment are among the most challenging economic and social problems that we face in almost every country. Thus, governments and policymakers across the globe are intent on identifying policies and programs which increase the probability that jobless youth will find work, raise the productivity and income of the underemployed, and facilitate a transition from school to labor market without extended delay. YEI addresses this demand by identifying effective approaches to promote youth employment.

Youth Employment Network Marketplace

The Marketplace targets practitioners working on youth employment and young entrepreneurs. It will establish an online space where stakeholders can come to share knowledge, form new partnerships, and exchange ideas, resources and advice. Not only does the Marketplace provide a platform for exchange and coordination within the youth employment community, it also provides valuable resources such as funding competitions and an online webinar series. The Marketplace is driven by the needs of its users and will evolve based on their changing demands and priorities.
