Globally Youth being enthusiastic, vibrant, innovative and dynamic in nature is the most important section of the population. Youth shows strong passion, motivation and will power which also make them the most valuable human resource for fostering economic, cultural and political development of a nation. According to ‘World Population Prospects: The 2015 revision’ Population Database of United Nations Population Division, India has the world’s highest number of 10 to 24-year-olds, with 242 million. India is expected to have 34.33% share of youth in total population by 2020. Education is central to development and to the improvement of the lives of young people globally, and as such has been identified as a priority area in internationally agreed development goals and the World Program of Action for Youth. In 2013, about 225 million youth, or 20% of all youth in the developing world, are “idle” – not in education, employment or training. Japan has experienced increases in longevity, which have produced not only an older population but an older workforce, relative to other advanced economies, as older workers remain healthy and delay retirement. Since Japan has experienced both types of shifts in recent decades, it has a growing population of older workers, as well as a shrinking population of younger workers due to the decrease in fertility.
