Supporting young people's transition to adulthood poses
important opportunities and risky challenges for development policy.
Are education systems preparing young people to cope with the demands
of changing economies? What kind of support do they get as they enter
the labor market? Can they move freely to where the jobs are? What can
be done to help them avoid serious consequences of risky behavior, such
as death from HIV-AIDS and drug abuse? Can their creative energy be
directed productively to support development thinking?
The report focuses on crucial capabilities and transitions in a
young person's life: learning for life and work, staying healthy,
working, forming families, and exercising citizenship. For each, there
are opportunities and risks; for all, policies and institutions
matter.
