Progress towards these Goals is mutually reinforcing, providing opportunities to foster improved employment outcomes for youth while contributing to the achievement of other Goals. The targets emphasize the importance of a solid macroeconomic foundation for economic growth, driven by strategic investments in job-intensive and productive economic activities. In keeping with the integrated nature of the global economy, the targets focus on promoting trade and strengthening the ability of less developed economies to tap into the economic power of the developed world (through financial aid, tourism and foreign direct investment) in terms of job creation.
