The Power of Youth
Young people were hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis, and the current cost of living crisis is exacerbating the pressure on youth. Investing in skills, education, quality jobs and mental health will help young people rejuvenate their educational and career prospects. Is this enough to empower them to face the future with confidence? What do the youth think about the current situation?
Giving them a voice in shaping policies is key to helping them bounce back and thrive.

ABOUT THE OECD
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation established in 1960 that works collaboratively to build better policies for better lives. Our goal is to shape policies that foster prosperity, equality, opportunity and well-being for all. Together with governments, policy makers, policy shapers, and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges.
From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting. To learn more about the OECD, our global reach, and how to join us, go to https://www.oecd.org/about/. To keep up with latest at the OECD, visit https://www.oecd.org/.
