520 |a The authors examine the challenges facing Africa's youth in their transition from school to working life, and propose a strategy for meeting these challenges. Topics covered include the effect of education on employment and income, broadening employment opportunities, and enhancing youth capabilities.

Strengthening the work force can also improve the investment climate, increase economic growth, and prevent instability and violence, particularly.
