COVID-19 and the Youth Question Africa: Kenya Concept Note
Year: 2021
Type: article
Study design: Study Protocol
Abstract: The COVID-19 crisis has severely disrupted youth livelihoods, access to \neducation, employment and participation in governance processes, \ndecision-making and public life. It is envisaged that the long-term \nimpact of the crisis will exacerbate their vulnerability and exclusion. At \nthe same time, the COVID-19 crisis has the potential to promote youth \nagency by encouraging innovation, strengthening intergenerational \ndialogue and promoting social accountability. Against this background, \nthis project seeks to generate evidence on how youth, despite the \nexclusionary practices, can be at the forefront of action and policy \nresponses to mitigate and address the impact of the pandemic. The main \nresearch question that this study will answer is: How do we ensure that \nyouth-led social accountability programming for COVID-19 is genderresponsive, inclusive and has meaningful participation so that the voices of the most marginalized have equal representation for transformed \nsocieties?
