On 5 February, INCLUDE and the Youth Employment Funders Group organized a webinar during which Evert-jan Quak, research officer at the Institute of Development Studies, presented the key findings from the evidence synthesis paper on Private sector development interventions and better-quality job creation for youth in Africa: linking business performance with productivity growth and sustainable job creation. This paper, co-authored by Justin Flynn, was published in the frame of the ‘Boosting decent employment for Africa’s youth’ joint research initiative between INCLUDE, the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the International Labour Organization (ILO), under the umbrella of the Global Initiative on Decent Jobs for Youth. Following the presentation of the paper, Theodore Klouvas, Programme Manager for Orange Corners Africa & Middle East and Policy Officer for Youth & Employment at the Netherlands Enterprise & Development Agency (RVO), commented on the findings from a practitioner’s perspective. The webinar ended with a round of questions from the audience.
