rs, Professor Ernest Aryeetey, Professor Craig Jeffrey, and Professor Peter Rosa, along
with all the other participants, provided useful feedback and encouraged us to
proceed with presenting the key project findings in book form.
A string of people provided support for the project and the book along the
way. At the host institution – the Department of Geography, University of
Copenhagen – the untiring assistance of Dorthe Hallin with the accounts was
invaluable, and in the closing stages Kent Pørksen kindly helped produce the
maps at short notice. Wisdom Kalenga and Cecilia Gregersen both spent time at
CBS providing assistance with the data analysis and conference support. Maheen
Pracha did an excellent job editing the entire manuscript while Jo Woods
assisted in the final checking and layout. Thanks are also due to Faye Leerink at
Routledge for seeing the potential of the book and for agreeing to allow it to be
subsequently published in sub-Saharan Africa, which we hope will ensure it is
also widely read there.
As all of the project participants spent lengthy periods of time in the field and/
or visiting other academic institutions, many families have had to cope with
these absences. We thank them for their forbearance and for supporting the
respective team members in their studies and travels. Hopefully they feel it was
worthwhile in the end.
While producing this book has been a major effort, it marks the end of an era
that started back in November 2008 when we first started devising the project in
response to a call from FFU for projects on youth employment. We are
extremely grateful to all of the “YEMP family”, as the project team came to be
known, for their dedication to the project and for making it such a rewarding and
fun experience, and look forward to future collaboration
