Investing in Youth Policy

Investing in Youth Policy advocates for governments and civil society to put young people on the policy agenda. It makes the case for the importance of developing and implementing policies that deliver on the rights of adolescents and youth within the Asia-Pacific region. It also describes good practices in seven case study countries. Investing in Youth Policy can be used at all levels of government and civil society: • As evidence to make a case for developing and implementing policies that deliver on the rights of young people • To promote working with and for young people in developing policies that affect them • To share good practices in developing and implementing evidence-based policies in the region • To demonstrate the increasing commitment of governments in the region to honour their responsibilities to meet the needs of young people
