- (3) In its Resolution of 27 November 2009 on a renewed framework for European cooperation in the youth field (2010-18) 4, the Council underlines the need for better knowledge and understanding of the living conditions, values and attitudes of young women and men.
- (4) In its Recommendation of 22 April 2013 on establishing a Youth Guarantee 5, the Council encourages Member States to implement Youth Guarantee schemes as soon as possible, preferably from the start of the 2014-20 multiannual financial framework.

- (5) In its Communication Working together for Europe's young people: A call to action on youth unemployment 6, the Commission encourages Member States to implement the Youth Guarantee and to invest in young people.
