Nigeria is revising its National Integrated Youth Employment Action Plan (NIYEAP) to address unemployment and the gap between education and labor market needs for the 2025–2030 period. Initial efforts focused on private sector engagement and technical support from the SEESIN project, a joint initiative between the International Labour Organization and the GIZ SKYE II program. The strategy emphasizes professional integration and addressing regional disparities. Following these developments, the Federal Ministry of Youth Development and UNICEF launched a nationwide review. This expanded initiative includes regional consultative meetings in locations such as Port Harcourt and Kano. The updated framework aims to prepare young Nigerians for a labor market shaped by digital technology, artificial intelligence, automation, and the green economy, with a focus on sectors like agriculture, technology, and the creative economy. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-11: Nigeria and UNICEF review youth employment strategy through 2030 The Nigerian government and UNICEF are reviewing the Nigeria Youth Employment Action Plan to create a new strategy through 2030, focusing on digital skills and emerging labor market trends. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/nigeria-and-unicef-review-youth-employment-strategy-through-2030 ### 2026-08-26: Nigeria revises national youth employment plan for 2025-2030 Nigeria is revising its National Integrated Youth Employment Action Plan (NIYEAP) for 2025-2030, focusing on private sector engagement and technical support from the ILO and GIZ to improve youth job integration 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/nigeria-revises-national-youth-employment-plan-for-2025-2030 --- Cite as: Nigeria youth employment strategy revision.
