+abstract: 'This paper assesses the impact of an integrated skills training program
+
+  given to youth aged 17-25-year old living under the \$2/day poverty line
+
+  in the cocoa belt region of Ghana. Despite being a leading producer of
+
+  cocoa and having a burgeoning youth population, it is estimated that the
+
+  average age of a cocoa farmer in Ghana is greater than 50 years. To
+
+  introduce young people to cocoa farming and address the potential
+
+  barriers they face in order to do that; a multi-faceted skills training
+
+  programme was designed with the ultimate aim of improving and
+
+  diversifying youth livelihoods. The training had three key components:
+
+  i) cocoa academies (which includes agricultural practices; life skills
+
+  and financial literacy); ii) business incubators (including
+
+  entrepreneurial training, networks, mentoring) and iii) supporting
+
+  enabling environment (access to land and finance). Combining
+
+  quasi-experimental methods Propensity Score Matching with Difference in
+
+  Differences, we estimate the causal effect of the programme on
+
+  agricultural outcomes (farming, agricultural practices), financial
+
+  behaviour outcomes (saving practices, mobile banking) and livelihood
+
+  outcomes (employment, income, poverty likelihood) one year after the
+
+  completion of training. The results of the impact evaluation suggest
+
+  that compared to the control group (youth nonparticipants), youths who
+
+  participated in the training adopt better agricultural practices (26
+
+  percentage points (pp)), cultivate cocoa (24 pp), and are more likely to
+
+  engage in farming (22 pp). We also find a 28.7\% increase in income in
+
+  the last seven days and hours worked by 12.4\%. Youth also increase the
+
+  use of banks for saving (16 pp), save using mobile money (6.7 pp), the
+
+  use of Village Savings and Loan Associations (1.7 pp) and, in general,
+
+  the use of mobile money for both sending and receiving transfers (10.6
+
+  pp). The sex-disaggregated sub-sample analysis provides other valuable
+
+  insights on the intervention.(c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.'
