In light of the recently enacted AfCFTA, the inclusion of youth becomes even more crucial as they represent Africa's future. This study explores effective strategies for elevating the voices of young African people in trade-related policy processes, focusing specifically on youth business associations (YBAs). By mapping 41 YBAs across Africa and employing surveys and interviews, this study identifies the barriers that prevent their integration into policy processes, as well as the practices and structures that facilitate it.
