National Youth Survey

The National Youth Survey (NYS) is NYC's flagship survey that looks into the major concerns and issues of schooling and working youths in Singapore. The NYC adopts a resource-based approach that focuses on the supports youths require for societal engagement (social capital) and individual development (human capital). To date, there has been 7 iterations of the time-series study, with the latest wave conducted in 2022.

 

The NYS adopts a random (i.e., probability-based) sampling method to ensure responses are representative of the resident youth population aged 15 to 34 year olds. Youth trends and findings captured in the NYS 2022 can be found in the YOUTH.sg: The State of Youth in Singapore 2024 publications below.
