Youth and Inequality in Education
Author: Michael Heathfield
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317612825
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The transition to adulthood for many is mediated by class, culture, and local/global influences on identity. This volume analyzes the global injustices that create inequities and restrict future opportunities for young people during this transitional time, including poverty, unemployment, human rights, race, ethnicity and location. It critically examines global instances of youth discrimination, offering positive strategies and practices such as youth work that successfully remediate these injustices. With international contributions from Aotearoa New Zealand, Australia, England, Malaysia, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, Morocco, Jordan and the U.S., this volume is particularly important to researchers and scholars in the fields of youth studies, education, and social work.

Pages : 38
Book Description
"This paper begins with a brief of how youth as a topic/ area of study is treated in the social sciences and hence, of the underlying frameworks typically employed to guide research and analysis in youth studies. This section is followed next by a short discussion of the life-events or markers commonly used to delineate the youth as a social category or construct and the measures/ indicators for identifying who constitutes the "youth." Subsequent sections are then devoted to highlighting existing study findings on the Filipino youth in the areas of: family life and relationships; peer groups; gender identity and sexuality; values and religiosity; self-esteem and disposition; health and lifestyles; media exposure and ICT; schooling and educational aspirations; career and work; and civic consciousness, social responsibility and politics"--P. 2.

A quarter of a century ago His Royal Highness Prince Claus of the Netherlands (1926-2002) formulated his statements on ‘development and equity’.

Population, Resources and Development
Author: Shripad Tuljapurkar
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9781402034121
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
In the 21st century, the populations of the world’s nations will display large and long-lived changes in age structure. Many of these began with fertility change and are amplified by declining mortality and by migration within and between nations. Demography will matter in this century not by force of numbers, but by the pressures of waves of age structural change. Many developing countries are in relatively early stages of fertility decline and will experience age waves for two or more generations. These waves create shifting flows of people into the key age groups, greatly complicating the task of managing development, from building human capabilities and creating jobs to growing industry, infrastructure and institutions. In this book, distinguished scientists examine key demographic, social, economic, and policy aspects of age structural change in developing economies. This book provides a joint examination of dimensions of age structural change that have often been considered in isolation from each other (for example, education, job creation, land use, health); it uses case studies to examine policy consequences and options and develops qualitative and formal methods to analyze the dynamics and consequences of age structural change.

Book Description
This report analyses the international migration patterns for employment in the Philippines and offers suggestions on how to respond to them. Presently more than 10% of the national population is based abroad. This study also aims to better understand the link between youth employment and migration and how to broaden the youth's options in these areas. It recommends promoting the hiring of young workers via incentives such as tax breaks, improving education and dissemination of information on job opportunities both within the country and abroad, and it notes the need to engage young Filipinos overseas to improve data collection and develop "brain gain" policies and programs.
