of poverty.*
*Background*
Private sectors can contribute to the reduction of youth unemployment,
especially female, with various ways. The role of private sectors is varied
from skills training, employment services, job-search assistance, to
entrepreneurship promotion. Aside from this, private sectors who want to
contribute to the reduction of female youth unemployment issues also need
to consider providing youth and gender inclusive working environment to
attract more youth in the private sectors.
Promoting youth inclusion makes good sense for progress.[1]

First,
young people not only shape the present of any country, but they will also
profoundly determine its future. Second, young people are at a stage in
life characterized by a high capacity to learn and acquire skills and, in
general, positive attitudes towards participation in society. Third,
investing in young has inter-generational benefits that can create powerful
agents for change. Last but not least, the exclusion of youth from central
societal sectors generates tremendous social and economic costs to the
society and may even lead to social and political unrest.
In the heart of that is gender inclusion in employment. Equal access on
education and employment will contribute to ending poverty and disparity on
economic empowerment and participation. That in the end will also
contribute to the achievement of Empower Youth for Work Project, especially
Outcome 2 “*Young women and men benefit from new or improved employment or
entrepreneurship opportunities”, *activity 2.3.3.1, Developing Research
Report on Policy and Practice on Gender and Youth, based on private sectors
experiences.
Oxfam through the EYW project will undertake activities that will influence
private sectors to increase commitment to women and youth unemployment
issues and the provision of youth and gender inclusive work environment to
attract more youth in the private sector. These activities will begin with
research and will continue with campaign and influencing activities.
