About

This handout is part of the Positive Youth Development (PYD) Measurement Toolkit. It includes indicators used in various youth programs, like health and governance, to track changes and link activities to long-term outcomes. The toolkit includes mandatory USAID indicators and pilot ones for youth. These are measured before, during, and after interventions. More research is needed on PYD's effectiveness in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). By using these indicators, programs can show how activities improve things like self-efficacy among youth, which can lead to better health behaviors.
