Kenyan Baseline Report: Covid-19 and The Youth Question in Africa: Response, Impacts and Prevention Measures in the IGAD Region
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Organisation for Social Science Research in Eastern and Southern Africa (OSSREA) in \ncollaboration with CEWARN-IGAD, Makerere University (Uganda), OSSREA Kenya Chapter and \nCCRDA (Ethiopia) were funded by IDRC-Canada to conduct a study entitled: COVID-19 and the \nYouth Question in Africa: Response, Impact and Prevention Measures in the IGAD Region. \n \nThe study was conducted in three IGAD member states, namely Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda \nThis survey report presents the Kenyan study conducted by OSSREA Kenyan Chapter. It \naddressed the youth question, focusing on how they were mobilized to participate in COVID 19 \nresponse; their capacity to participate; nature and involvement level they were engaged in; policy \nengagement and knowledge sharing; and accountability in COVID 19 response. \n \nUNHCR recommends that one tactic to combat the spread of the virus in vulnerable communities \nmust be to engage local youth and youth networks. This survey re-emphasizes the value \ngovernment, CBOs, FBOs, CSOs and any Youth Organizations may gain by tapping into youth \ncreativity and innovation. This survey has revealed non engagement of youth participation in \nCOVID 19 response.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
