Transitions in the Post-pandemic COVID-19 Context: Building Youth Policies in the Global South

This article seeks to contribute to the field of youth studies, particularly to the tradition of youth studies as transition, from Global South standpoint and integrating a gender perspective into youth policymaking. Our approach endorses the development of plural public interventions, focusing on the debates of youth as a transition with a commitment to the construction of a political economy of transitions, through a feminist lens, and amidst the challenges of current youth policies within the post-pandemic COVID-19 context. Thus, in this article, we aim to promote the pluralization of socially just policies that can enable building new bonds of solidarity between generations, genders, and social groups. Ultimately, we argue for the importance of continuing the design of participatory, plural, and well-situated youth policies, underlining the importance of new intergenerational agreements in the construction of fairer and more democratic societies from a Global South perspective.
