Mobilizing African youths for action on sustainable Economic growth and Development

Africa has the youngest population in the world with more than 400 million young people aged between the ages of 15 to 35 years. Such a youthful population calls for an increase investment in economic and social development factors, in order to improve the development index of African nations. The AEF Africa Youth Forum is a privileged space for reflection and exchanges for African youth. It provides African youth with an opportunity to speak out and affirm its role in the growth and development of the continent. We help remove all structural obstacles to the effective participation of young people, mobilize the necessary resources to develop long-term national action plans for the effective involvement and participation of young people in the promotion of peace and security and in national development processes" By necessity or choice, more and more of young people in Africa are embracing entrepreneurship either to create wealth and make profits, or to create social value and ensure their financial autonomy.

This creative and innovative entrepreneurial spirit of young people is deployed and manifested in almost all areas of the social and economic life of the African continent. We look at the inclusive public policies that promote the development and empowerment of African youth in African countries for the Creativity, Entrepreneurship and Innovation?
