Abstract
This study analyzes the experiences and approaches of Asian bay areas, particularly China's Greater Bay Area and Japan's Tokyo Bay Area, in promoting youth participation in social innovation. Through a literature review and four case studies, the paper explores how social innovation helps young people address modernity challenges, including unemployment and social isolation. The cases include knowledge enhancement programs, breaking social isolation, providing work promotion opportunities, and empowering and inspiring youth to engage in social innovation. These methods not only contribute to solving social issues but also enhance young people's self-efficacy and improve their employability. The findings suggest that social innovation programs targeting youth must be tailored to meet their diverse needs, ranging from personal development and community belonging to professional advancement, all of which play a vital role.
