This is the second report issued as part of the DEVlab project, a collaborative initiative between Youthful Cities and the Tamarack Institute, supported by funding in part from the Government of Canada’s National Essential Skills Initiative program.

Building on the first report, it synthesizes insights and recommendations derived from summits and community engagements. The DEVlab project aims to enhance youth workforce development, address systemic barriers, and co-create actionable solutions to empower young people in urban centres across Canada.
