This section provides more information about the United Nations indicator or the European Union Sustainable Development Indicator, such as its rationale, international results, metadata, and other relevant statistics.

Rationale

The purpose of SDG indicator 8.b.1 is to provide an indication of the progress of countries in addressing youth employment issues.

In this respect, it is assumed that having officially adopted what can be recognised as a structured strategy for youth employment would mean larger attention given by a country to youth labour market challenges, compared to countries with no strategy.

In fact, the development of such a strategy usually entails broad participation of and consultation/ coordination among different stakeholders.
