书目名称 | West African Youth Challenges and Opportunity Pathways | 编辑 | Mora L. McLean | 视频video | | 概述 | Challenges assumptions about African youth migration within, to, and from Western Africa.Explores the potential of training programs aimed at preparing youth with low levels of educational attainment | 丛书名称 | Gender and Cultural Studies in Africa and the Diaspora | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This open-access edited collection, focusing on Ghana and Nigeria, offers a transatlantic, transnational exploration of barriers that threaten the wellbeing of West African youth—ranging from Black immigrant youth in the American city of Newark, New Jersey, to students in Almajiri Islamic schools in Northern Nigeria. Incorporating themes of migration, vulnerability, and agency and aspirations, the book conveys the resilience of African youth transitioning toward adulthood in a world of structural inequality. It thus crosses the academic divide between Youth Studies and African Studies, while challenging conventional framings of Black youth as deficient and deviant—positing instead their individual and collective creativity and assets. The contributors employ different methodological approaches, including field research and autoethnography, from varying multidisciplinary and practitioner perspectives. . | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2020 | 关键词 | Open Access; youth learning; vulnerable youth; opportunity pathways; postsecondary pathways; African immi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-21092-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-21094-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-21092-2Series ISSN 2946-3793 Series E-ISSN 2946-3807 | issn_series | 2946-3793 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2020 |
