WEBINAR SERIES

Policy and Practice Webinar Series: Rural Youth Workforce Development Rural youth face many hurdles in the transition from school to work. A fast changing economy means that youth are likely to face more career changes than their parents. In order to retain and attract youth rural places need to better understand youth and the challenges they face, as well as potential options for how to support them.

This webinar will explore rural youth labour force conditions and trends in Canada and will present research undertaken in Nova Scotia, Ontario, and British Columbia focused on better understanding rural youth school-to-work transitions.
