Youth Capital launched the first edition of their annual publication- Shift- in August 2020. Shift laid out the ten-point Action Plan that Youth Capital had developed in collaboration with young people across South Africa; grounded in both young people’s experience of youth unemployment and the evidence and research available, the Action Plan prioritises ten systemic challenges that need to be addressed to ensure that young South Africans have the skills, opportunities and support to get their first decent job.
In our current context, the Action Plan was designed to provide a shared agenda across the sector –the blueprint for tackling the crises of youth unemployment.
