Introduction of out the school youth?

Out-of-school youth (OSY) refers to young people of school age (typically defined as ages 6-18, but this can vary by country and context) who are not enrolled in any formal educational setting, such as primary or secondary school. This is a diverse group with varying reasons for not attending school. These reasons can include poverty, child labor, discrimination, disability, lack of access to schools, conflict, or family responsibilities. Understanding the specific circumstances of OSY is crucial for developing effective interventions. They face significant challenges in accessing opportunities for education, employment, and social inclusion, often leading to increased vulnerability to exploitation, poverty, and marginalization. Addressing the needs of OSY is a critical aspect of social development and achieving sustainable development goals.
