Why Youth Unemployment Is Surging In China
China is facing a growing list of problems — real estate, semiconductor bans and labor market gyrations. The world's second-most populous country also has a major youth unemployment problem. China's urban youth unemployment rate has risen to 21% as of May 2023, up from 15.4% two years earlier. "Let's not forget about the draconian lockdown measures," says Fang Xu, urban sociologist at the University of California, Berkeley. "The young people are still recovering." This comes as the world's second-largest economy faces a tougher time getting out of the Covid pandemic than many experts estimated, which has broader impacts on the ability of investors to put money to work in the country, and the struggling property sector.

Making Finance Work: Financially Including the Youth
The GrEEn project specifically targets the youth who are too often excluded from the financial ecosystem. This exclusion, coupled with high youth unemployment rates and a high level of economic disengagement, can create disaffection, drive migration, incite social unrest and slow progress towards development goals. Under this context, UNCDF is partnering with the Youth Banking Department of Ecobank to tackle this challenge and increase access and usage of financial services for the youth in the Ashanti and Western regions. In this video, Henry BOYE, Head of Youth Banking shares how UNCDF is supporting partners to pilot products for the youth.
