YEN Lead Country's Status 

The Lead Country Process is the flagship product of the Youth Employment Network’s (YEN) activities aiming to foster governments’ engagement in the development and promotion of improved employment opportunities for young people. It was initiated in 2001 as a tool to prioritize youth employment on the development agendas. Since then 21 countries have joined the process.
