Abstract

The transition from adolescence to adulthood is a critical period in the life course. The decisions that young people and their families make regarding transitions from school into work, marriage, and parenthood will affect their opportunities and well-being for the rest of their lives. The purpose of this report is to present some descriptive statistics and related analysis of the 2012-13 survey data. We do not attempt to be comprehensive. Rather, our purpose is to provide the reader with a sense of the scope and nature of the data set and some information about the lives of young adults in Madagascar.
