This practical resource guide is sourced from the YIELD Hub’s fifth Action Learning Cycle on Compensating Youth Work. It includes self-assessment tools, recommendations, and activities designed to help organisations at different levels to compensate youth work and engagement.

This guide would not be possible without the commitment and contribution of the Cycle 5 member organisations who worked with us over the course of 7 months. Ten organisations participated in the cycle: Choice for Youth & Sexuality, Advocates for Youth, Paediatric-Adolescent Treatment Africa, SERAC Bangladesh, Plan International, EngenderHealth, Real Justice +, Migration Youth and Children Platform, Major Group of Children and Youth, Restless Development, and Young Women in Action.

The guide is accompanied by a quiz to assess organisation’s current compensation practices against a set of criteria, helping to identify their developmental level as either Foundational, Proficient, or Advanced.
