We want all young people to feel empowered about their futures.

              The FACTS


              The numbers

              Around 80,000 or roughly one in five of all young men in London are from Black ethnic groups.

              Work

              Unemployment rates for young Black men are rising sharply and far faster than for other young people.

              Higher Education

              Young Black male graduates are five times more likely to be unemployed than young White male graduates.

              The result

              Young Black men in London are now up to three times more likely to be unemployed as young White men.
