We launched our Youth Friendly Employment framework in February 2017, we are now looking for Regional Delivery Partners to support us you have until 7th April to complete the expression of interest.
What is the Youth Friendly Employment Framework?
The Youth Friendly Employment Framework underpins the good practice required to support, engage and employ young people aged 16-24. It equips organisations with the tools and support required to ensure their organisation can maximise the potential of the young people it engages with.
For the first-time organisations will be able to really evaluate the work they are doing, remove some of the barriers young people may experience and be recognised for that work. We want to see the UK embrace and support its young people and truly become a youth friendly society. The Youth Friendly Employment Framework has been endorsed by Goldsmiths, University of London.
