Data collection tool.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12348/6875Youth constitute a critical demographic for the future of aquatic and agri-food systems, yet their aspirations, constraints, and decision-making realities are often insufficiently understood or systematically documented. The Youth Job Opportunities and Aspirations Research Tools were developed to address this gap by providing a structured, gender-responsive, and context-sensitive approach to understanding how young women and men (aged 18–35) perceive, engage with, and aspire to livelihoods within fisheries, aquaculture, mariculture, agriculture, and livestock systems.PDFCC-BY-4.0decisionmakingyouth agencyyouth livelihoodresearch toolemployment metricsTool
