India’s Demographic Dividend and Youth Empowerment

India’s unique advantage of a large young population is widely recognized. The potential advantage of its demographic dividend for the country and the youth can be reaped provided it looks into its policies and programmes on education, health, livelihood and citizenship, with a view to empower its young population. Some of the leading educators, civil society leaders and policy advisors look into these aspects and provide insightful suggestions. The book is enriched by four case studies from Punjab, Rajsthan, Kerala and Odisha.
