Youth and the Global Economy

The current edition of Finance and Development brought out by the International Monetary Fund focuses on the challenges facing the world's youth and raises the critical challenge: youth represents the emerging human capital in countries around the world yet there is underinvestment in this "capital"  during the current global economic downturn. Faced with high unemployment rates and other challenges youth have emerged as major advocates for political and economic change. Articles in this special edition document these experiences in many countries of the world.
