The OECD Recommendation on Creating Better Opportunities for Young People was adopted in June 2022 by all OECD countries. This Recommendation outlines how countries can implement government-wide strategies to support young people, including through skills, education, employment, social, health, and public governance policies. 

The OECD Youth Policy Toolkit provides practical guidance and good practices for countries in designing and executing policies that address the unique challenges young people face today. Structured around five pillars and featuring more than 70 good practice examples from all OECD countries, the OECD Youth Policy Toolkit helps policy makers implement the OECD Youth Recommendation adopted in June 2022. The Toolkit reflects diverse characteristics of young people and covers policy areas such as education and skills, employment and entrepreneurship, health and social inclusion, participation and representation in public life, and public governance and intergenerational justice.
