Join the People’s CALL TO ACTION on jobs in Africa
Millions of young people in Africa aspire to be responsible and productive citizens who can help develop their communities. Yet, according to the International Labour Organization, almost half of African youths in the workforce were either unemployed or working poor in 2019. Since the pandemic hit, more people are out of jobs than ever before, with young people and women impacted most of all.
We’ve partnered with youth networks, think-tanks, Civil Society Organisations, businesses and industry experts to launch the JobsNowAfrica Campaign to help create 15 million decent jobs in Africa each year by 2025.
Will you join us in giving African youth the opportunities they need to fulfill their potential?
