It also offers insight on the value of youth-led research for diverse stakeholders, including youth, youth-serving organizations, and donors. IREX’s youth-led labor market assessment framework and guide is informed by research on YPAR approaches implemented by IREX and other youth development organizations around the world.

Attribution/Author:This research was made possible by IREX through its Center for Applied Learning and Impact in collaboration with Makerere University. Thanks to the youth researchers and youth research contributors, as well as the implementing team that trained and supported the youth during the pilot of the Youth-Led Labor Market Assessment framework. Special thanks to Makerere University, which provided the space, administrative support, and local knowledge expertise for the initiative. The pilot would not have been possible without the contributions of youth and employers in the trade sector across Kampala, Uganda. Their cooperation and willingness to provide valuable information enabled a productive and meaningful research process.
