Despite investments in education, youth unemployment remains a major challenge in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) due to a mismatch between workforce skills and market demand. A new British Council report highlights the potential of skills levies—a tax on employers used to fund workforce training—to transform technical and vocational education. While successfully implemented in South Africa, Botswana, and Mauritius, skills levies remain underutilized or mismanaged in much of SSA. Policymakers must rethink how these funds can be leveraged to align training with labor market needs, boost employability, and drive economic growth.
