| Summary, etc. | "Countries the world over have achieved rapid economic growth by virtue of demographic dividends, especially through the youth. Kenya has yet to achieve its development goals despite having a youth bulge. The study used cross-sectional data obtained from the Kenya Integrated Household Budget Survey 2015/16 to analyze the determinations of realizing youth dividend. The empirical results showed that higher dividends are obtained from having tertiary education; youth in non-agricultural sectors realize higher dividend than their counterparts in agriculture; access to information and communication technology would increase dividends especially for the youth; health insurance coverage and access to healthcare are critical to realizing youth dividend; reducing dependency ratio accelerates the achievement of youth dividend; there are higher dividends in empowering women; and development in both rural and urban contexts increases youth dividends. These results highlighted areas in which the government could consider increasing investment to reap youth dividends. There is need for the government to encourage the youth to enroll in tertiary education, and improve the quality of vocational and tertiary education in rural areas. Promotion of reproductive health initiatives by the National and County governments and increasing insurance coverage for the youth would reap youth dividends and reduce the dependency ratio. There is need for the government to make agriculture more appealing for the youth by promoting the use of innovative technology in production, provision of credit and land-leasing services to youth and developing rural infrastructure. Improving access to information and communication technology by investing in infrastructure and introducing digital skills at a young age would enhance access to information on employment , training and the gig economy. There is need to create awareness on opportunities available to the youth in training, employment and participation. Additionally, the country is poised to reap from a demographic dividend by enhancing youth productivity, and accomplishing the various development frameworks such as the Kenya Vision 2030 and the Demographic Dividend Roadmap." --Abstract |
