Youth, as a concept, varies from culture to culture and from society to society.Youth, or young people, form a significant reservoir of human resource potential in Africa. The youth constitute about 30 per cent of the world‟s inhabitants and half of the populations of countries in Africa. Notably, they account for over 30 per cent of Africa‟s labour force. Yet about 20 per cent of Africa‟s young people are unemployed. On the one hand, they are a potential resource for sustainable economic growth and social development. Contrariwise, they have proven to be a source of social tension and conflict when left disengaged and alienated from the conditions necessary for their development as productive citizens.
The Institute has a resource centre that is open to civil society actors in the region. It serves as a library of civil society documents, research reports and edited volumes that are accessible to both individuals and organisations. The Institute has partnered the Foundation Centre to provide online learning resources and a database of grant giving institutions in the United States of America.
