According to the upcoming 2024 World Bank Jobs Flagship Report: Of the 5 billion working-age people in the world today, 84% live in developing countries and most work in informal, low productivity, low-paying, insecure jobs. At the same time, 3.7 million youth globally are expected to reach working age every month between 2020-2030.
To address the problem of youth unemployment, young people must have a greater say in the policies that directly affect them. Recognizing this, S4YE formed the S4YE Youth Advisory Group (YAG) in 2018, with 17 talented and enterprising youth from around the world as original members. As of today, the group is 120 members strong! Click here to learn more about the newly announced 2023-2024 Cohort.
