Decent Jobs for Youth & Generation Unlimited launch new knowledge facility: YouthForesight
Global launch of the YouthForesight knowledge facility
YouthForesight will serve as a one-stop-shop providing curated publications, databases, tools, and multimedia resources to support evidence-based action on young people’s education and skilling, employment, entrepreneurship, and engagement.
Hosted by GenU and DJY, the platform will be a one-stop-shop for development practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and young people themselves to learn and share about youth education, skilling, employment, entrepreneurship, and engagement through curated tools, data, and resources. Through a simple sign-up feature, YouthForesight allows partners to share knowledge resources, gain visibility, and tap into a network of stakeholders dedicated to creating positive change for young people.
DJY and GenU share a common vision to enhance the future prospects of young people and aspire towards multi-stakeholder engagement that boost action and impact for youth. The alignment of efforts was strengthened through the Memorandum of Understanding between ILO and UNICEF signed last year. In addition to the What Works? A Guide to Action jointly launched last summer, the YouthForesight is another example of the collaboration between DJY and GenU along with the partners. Going forward, the two initiatives will continue to join forces to ensure coordinated results for and with young people globally.
