Abstract

Youth development is a critical area for social investment, and all the more so if South Africa is to reap the potential benefits of the current youth bulge. However, a common understanding of youth development priorities, and a co-ordinated multi-sectoral approach, is vital to ensure that our up-and-coming generation do not fall through the cracks.
