World Learning: Civic Engagement and New Visions for Employability

Default image, no image supplied by the user.
 Young people who see themselves as agents of positive change--even at a small scale--have a different vision of the purpose of their education, their work, and even of the time they may spend as NEETs (not in education, employment, or training). World Learning will present our efforts around the world helping youth develop employability skills in the real-life laboratory of addressing their own communities' challenges. Highlighting specific examples from Algeria, Iraq, and Mexico, we argue that civic engagement is one of the key missing links in most workforce development programming.
