The economics of nonformal education
Prospects for Employment Opportunities in the 1970s
Unemployment - and underemployment - of large proportions of the labour force is a central factor in almost all of today's developing countries. For many, this situation has steadily worsened despite the achievement during the last decade of relatively high rates of economic growth. Poverty and malaise characterise wide areas of the countryside as well as large sectors of major cities. These problems were explored by the eighth in the series of i…
Commonwealth African Regional Seminar on Youth Problems and Training
Few socio-economic problems in tropical Africa evoke greater concern than that of providing youth with training in skills and profitable opportunities for work. The increasing number of unemployed young people in towns and cities doesn't make sense, particularly when intensified development is being hoped and planned for. Everyone recognises the urgent need to look into this paradox, to diagnose the problem in its local variations, and to do some…
Inter-Regional Seminar on National Youth Service Programmes
In response to urgent local situations, many African nations have set going special programmes for youth. These programmes-largely a phenomenon of the 1960s-represent a distinct break with customary methods of meeting the needs of youth for civic education, specialised training, and community service. They are administered separately from systems of formal education and do not easily fit within the category of what is usually known as non-formal …
Inter-governmental Symposium on Unemployed Youth

Although in some areas local unemployment has been a continuing problem, this new, more serious form has emerged as a result of accelerated social change and demands difficult policy decisions. The problem arises from the rapid expansion of basic education without widespread facilities for further education and without man…
Unemployment Among African School Leavers
Throughout West, East, and Central Africa today-at a time when all these countries want to quicken the pace of development-masses of young people drift from rural areas to the cities in search of work. Mainly primary school leavers with an aversion to traditional farming, they set out hopefully to become first-generation wage-earners. But neither the jobs nor the vocational training exists that could meet their demands. And, as each year passes, …
