Learning Brief: Social Impact

Drawing on evidence from CFYE’s multi-country portfolio, this learning brief distills design lessons from employment initiatives that are moving beyond job numbers and embedding social impact as a core design and management principle, rather than a compliance add-on.

It shows how this can benefit young people, strengthen business performance, and have a positive impact on communities. The brief also highlights practical ways that CFYE partners have tested to attract, select, and retain youth in roles that align with their aspirations, skills, and long-term prospects.

This brief is written for funders, implementers, and businesses seeking practical ways to integrate meaningful employment opportunities for young people into core operations.
