“…Qualitative and quantitative data were analysed separately. Thematic content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data from FGDs, in-depth interviews and direct observations (Creswell et al, 2020;Ahmadi et al, 2022). The thematic content analysis allowed the researchers to interact deeply and familiarise themselves with collected qualitative data (Creswell et al, 2020).…”

“…This study employed a mixed research design to assess the effectiveness of youth engagement strategies in climate change and sustainable development agendas at Naitolia village in Monduli district (Bryman et al, 2021;Dawadi et al, 2021;Creswell et al, 2020). The mixed design allowed an extensive understanding of engagement trends and promoted the voices of marginalised local youth (Barreda, 2018;Ahmadi et al, 2022;Creswell et al, 2020). Quantitative respondent questionnaires were used to collect data on the influence of youth engagement strategies (independent variables) on climate change.…”

This study employed a mixed methodology to assess the effectiveness of youth engagement strategies in climate change agenda and sustainable development within Naitolia village, in Monduli district Tanzania. Non-probability sampling techniques were used to determine a total of 147 youthful respondents aged between 15 and 35 years from Ormang’wai and Engusero sub-villages. Qualitative data were collected using FGDs, in-depth interviews and direct field observations; while quantitative data were collected using respondent questionnaires. The findings reveal that 81.0% of respondents had awareness of the explicit and implicit engagement strategies in the area. Binary logistic regression model showed that mixed livelihoods and education systems significantly influenced the respondents’ awareness and engagement trends in priority development goals. Most engagement strategies embraced a combination of explicit and implicit strategies to enhance livelihood resilience. However, implicit strategic interventions were popular, while explicit strategies were considered ineffective and tokenistic due to mismatched execution of misaligned ‘one-size-fits-all’ policies. Despite increasing awareness of climate change, existing youth engagement strategies are still misplaced, tokenistic and ineffective in guaranteeing sustainable development in a rapidly changing climate. The study recommends proper mapping and inclusion of key stakeholders to raise public awareness and resource harmonization for enhanced youth engagement in climate change and sustainable development. Specifically, it recommends concrete paradigm shifts in governance, education systems, skills development pathways and financial accessibility to create enabling environments for effective youth engagement and empowerment in climate change and beyond priority development goals.
