'We must conclude by warning that the severity of youth employment problems today pales to insignificance beside those which could be face in the future... in developing countries. These countries face a pattern of escalating proportions. Their youth population is projected... to rise by more than 125 million (over 16 per cent) by the end of the century. In Africa... the youth population could triple over the next forty years. The population increase in urban areas might be even more dramatic since the natural increase could continue to be augmented by rural-urban migration. By 2000, half the youth of developing countries could live in cities... There will be a massive increase too in the number of educated youth. School enrolment in developing countries is spreading fast despite severe resource constraints. The prospects are, in one sense, alarming. But, looking to the future, the energies and economic potential of youth should be seen positively as a potential dynamic element in growing economies rather than merely as a 'problem'. If societies are willing to invest in youth it will repay that investment many times over.' - From the Report.'Unemployment involves wasted resources, but it is also a wider human problem. The loss is not just economic. Youth is a period of transition from childhood to adulthood, of energy and of willingness to learn and serve. With work, this can be directed towards a common benefit; without work, it is dissipated or even channelled into anti-social behaviour.' - From the Foreword by the Commonwealth Secretary-General.
