The majority of young people are better educated than their parents. Literacy rates across the developing world are highest among the young.
Nevertheless, 57 million young men and 96 million young women aged 15-24 in developing countries cannot read or write.
It is also thought that 115 million children are not in primary school and could struggle in future as a result.
About 352 million children aged 5-17 have some kind of work, but millions of extra jobs are needed worldwide. Unemployment is highest among the young - over 40% in countries such as Bosnia, South Africa and Haiti.
