Building Jobs and Futures: IDA in Africa
Africa's rapidly growing youth population presents both a challenge and an opportunity. With nearly half a billion people entering the workforce by 2035, creating jobs is essential for sustainable growth and stability. The International Development Association (IDA) is helping African countries turn this demographic wave into a force for prosperity-by building skills, expanding access to energy, empowering women and youth, and unlocking private investment.
