Abstract

Pakistan’s youth1 consists one-fifth (25 million) of its population and is one of the most valuable resources for its national growth and prosperity. An educated, skilled, and healthy youth, in other words a developed youth, would most certainly put Pakistan in the course of social and economic enrichment. Hence, it is imperative to determine where Pakistan’s youth stands in terms of development characteristics and indicators.
