Educational consequences of loss and trauma

Many children are deeply affected by loss and trauma. Although some studies mention the educational consequences of such situations, this is an aspect often overlooked.

Youth Exclusion in Yemen: Tackling the Twin Deficits of Human Development and Natural Resources

In this paper, part of the Wolfensohn Center for Development and Dubai School of Government working papers, the authors identify processes through which many Yemeni youth are excluded from the opportunity to become productive adults and positive contributors to society. They set forth the idea that many youth face social exclusion, whereby they are cut off from the resources and institutions that could assist them in their transition to adulthood. They find that youth exclusion in Yemen is highly gendered and regionalized. Females and rural residents are much more likely to be excluded than males and urban residents.
