With a whole new generation of young people demanding land and livelihoods across the land reform areas, we have been asking what are young people doing to make a living and where?
In our study we have two cohorts of young people linked to our core household sample across our sites. The first (Cohort 1) is all those born between 1985 and 1996 and was studied in 2016, when they were between 20 and 31 years old. The second (Cohort 2) is all those born between 1993 and 2003, and so aged between 20 and 31 today.
This article is from Zimbabweland, a blog written by IDS Research Fellow Ian Scoones. Zimbabweland focuses on issues related to rural livelihoods and land reform in Zimbabwe.
