The OECD, with the support of the TUI Care Foundation, organised a Youth Workshop in Berlin, Germany, focusing on ‘Securing the Future and Putting Youth at the Center of Policy-Making’.
Almost 70 young people engaged in discussions on how to implement the OECD Recommendation on Creating Better Opportunities for Young People. It aims at promoting government-wide strategies for youth and sets out a range of policy principles to improve outcomes for youth in areas such as education and skills, labour market, equality of opportunity and well-being.
Adopted in 2022, this legal document – agreed to by all OECD countries – outlines how countries can implement government-wide strategies to support young people, including through skills, education, employment, social and public governance policies. It builds on the Updated OECD Youth Action Plan from June 2021, and draws on the perspectives raised by young people themselves in a youth consultation organised in September 2021.
