Focusing on young people is particularly meaningful as Somalia’s population is the youngest of the African continent overall. Against a backdrop of continued conflict, insecurity, and violent extremism facing Somalia, the study offers a positive vision for defining peace as articulated by young women and men.

The report’s recommendations postulate a comprehensive understanding of youth, peace, and conflict going beyond solutions based solely on increased employment. 2018-08-10T20:44:15Z 2018-08-10T20:44:15Z 2018-04 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/384401529488160361/Youth-as-agents-of-peace-Somalia http://hdl.handle.net/10986/30193 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Social Analysis Economic & Sector Work Africa Somalia
