The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is the lead United Nations agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled. UNFPA expands the possibilities of women and young people to lead healthy and productive lives.

Young people around the world are reshaping economies, politics, and communities, and yet too many of them are unable to fulfill their full potential. The Global Youth Wellbeing Index (YWI) is based on the conviction that, for our collective prosperity, youth must have increased access to opportunities and services. The purpose of the YWI index is to provide a snapshot of the variation in youth wellbeing by incorporating both quantitative and perception-based qualitative indicators, in order to capture not only how others perceive youth development, but also how youth perceive their own wellbeing. It covers seven domains: gender equality, economic opportunity, education, health, citizen participation, safety and security, and information and communication technology.

The overall objective of the consultancy is to develop a Youth Well-being Index (YWI) study for Palestine. The index will gather and connect youth-related data to assess and compare the state of young people’s wellbeing in Palestine. The Index is designed to facilitate both thought and action by elevating youth needs, opportunities, and young people’s participation on national and global agendas. It also provides public and private sector decision-makers an easier way to understand the big picture, guide actions and investments, and drive progress over time.
