Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finding productive employment for the 200 million Africans between the ages of 15 and 24 is surely one of the continent's greatest challenges. Shows, however, that the median young person in Africa is a poor, out-of-school female living in a rural area. Argues that this finding - based on a careful examination of the data - has important implications for policy design, as well as for the politics of youth-sensitive policies : achieving productive employment and work for young people entails long-term action covering a range of economic and social policies focusing on labour demand and supply, and addressing both quantitative and qualitative dimensions of youth employment.

Download or read book Urbanization and Industrialization for Africa s Transformation written by United Nations. Economic Commission for Africa and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2017 Economic Report on Africa focuses on the linkages between industrialization and urbanization. Urbanization is one of Africa mega trends with profound implications for the social, economic, environmental dimensions of growth and transformation. Theory and experience demonstrate that industrialization and urbanization can be mutually reinforcing processes. It is therefore imperative to explore the linkages between urbanization and industrialization given the profound implications for structural transformation in Africa. So far, current policy narratives and frameworks on structural transformation and industrialization in Africa have largely failed to factor in the spatial and urban dimensions of industrialization, and in particular the advantages presented by productivity enhancement and agglomeration effects generated by cities. Yet, the nexus between urbanization and industrialization is of particular relevance for Agenda 2063 and the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development. Both agendas recognize urbanization as a critical factor for sustainable development. It is also important to consider urbanization and industrialization in light of Africa's engagement with the Third United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) to be held in Quito, Ecuador in October 2016. In this context, African policy makers have clearly recognized urbanization as an engine of structural transformation for inclusive and sustainable growth.
