World Youth Report 2005 by United Nations. Department of Economic and Social Affairs Book PDF Summary
It is ten years since the General Assembly adopted the World Programme of Action for Youth in 1995. This publication deals with fifteen identified priority issues, grouped under three main contexts in which youth deal with challenges and concerns: youth in a global economy, youth in civil society, and youth at risk. It reports over 200 million youth living in poverty, 130 million youth illiterate, 88 million unemployed and 10 million young people living with HIV/AIDS.
