In December 2015, Policy Development Facility Phase II organised a youth employment summit in collaboration with the Federal Public Administration Reform Programme. The summit brought together a range of stakeholders and provided a platform to learn lessons from past job creation schemes and explore innovative ideas to help generate employment and raise incomes. A highlight of the event was a ‘market place’ where private sector, government and donor agency participants were invited to showcase various job creation initiatives. This information leaflet summarises the initiatives showcased.
