Strategy elaboration to
incorporate children and youth related issues into development cooperation "Promotion of
children and youth as a target group" aims at the deliberate
incorporation of young people as beneficiaries for development projects. The
expected results include the evaluation of experience concerning youth and adolescence,
the establishment of sector specific concepts and policies (e.g. health,
rural development, income generation youth policy, strengthening of
Municipalities, conflict prevention), the implementation of regional pilot
measures, information exchange among professionals and the elaboration of
youth related tools and guidelines. Emphasis is given to the 12 to 18 year
old girls and boys in low-income rural and urban areas. Specific issues are
street children and youth, domestic child work, and children and adolescents
under slavery in West Africa. SUM Consult assisted GTZ in concept formulation
and analysis, and participated in various publications related to youth
