Youth empowerment has become a growing concern for achieving sustainable development worldwide. Yet, there is limited evidence on which domains of empowerment are important for youth and how they can be operationalized with indicators for measurement. We propose four domains of youth empowerment with corresponding indicators and use a well‐established methodology for constructing a composite index. Using data from a household survey in Tunisia, we assess youth empowerment in the proposed domains and explore their relation to youth well‐being. The proposed approach can help monitor youth empowerment in various contexts and evaluate the effectiveness of youth interventions.

衡量青年赋权：突尼斯的应用

青年赋权已成为全球实现可持续发展日益关注的问题。然而，关于哪些赋权领域对青年很重要以及如何通过衡量指标来实施这些领域的证据有限。我们提出了青年赋权的四个领域以及相应的指标，并使用完善的方法来构建综合指数。我们利用突尼斯的一项家庭调查数据，评估了拟议领域的青年赋权情况，并探讨了它们与青年福祉的关系。拟议的方法可以帮助监测各种情况下的青年赋权并评估青年干预措施的有效性。
