In response to the need for a strategic approach to job creation in Nigeria, a Job Creation Unit has been set up to coordinate, facilitate and elevate promising growth strategies within specific economic activities that have been targeted to stimulate job creation. The Job Creation Unit and stakeholders from across the public, private and civil sectors have developed a strategic framework to underpin Nigeria’s approach to tackling job creation and youth unemployment over a three-year period (2016–2018). This strategy document explains the new framework.
