Abstract:
Nigeria is fast becoming a predominantly youthful nation beset with high rate of unemployment. It therefore becomes pertinent to train the youths in Vocational Education especially textile practice, to tackle the unemployment problem which has reached an alarming proportion. Youth empowerment is geared towards equipping youths with skills for self-employment and nation building. The rate of unemployment and underemployment among Nigerian youths and graduates is on increase, paving way to crime and poverty. Though, the Federal government, International organizations and Non-governmental organizations have programmes on youth empowerment to reduce the problem of unemployment in Nigeria, but it seems that the expected results of these programmes could not be seen. This study identifies the factors militating against the functionality of vocational education in Nigeria and recommendations towards reducing the problem of unemployment and increase the economic growth of the nation are made.

Abstract:
Globally, inequality has persisted with especially the youths excluded from full participation in economic, political and social activities. Relatedly, youth unemployment has been known to undermine economies, threaten the peace and destabilize communities, if unchecked. This study investigates youth unemployment, using the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, Nigeria, as a case study; with a randomly selected sample size of 1,000 unemployed persons, in the 18–49-year-old age group. It examines the causes of youth unemployment as well as levels of awareness of the UN’s SDG-4 (Quality Education) and SDG-8 (Decent Work) in the working-age population, and the roles of these SDGs and government in combatting unemployment. Frequency and average-mean descriptive statistics of the factors causing youth unemployment indicated low levels of education, lack of employable skills and experience, and poor policies, etc., as predominant causative factors. Regarding the SDGs, the results revealed a low level of awareness and attainment in the population sampled. Education is central to achieving the SDGs; which can, in turn, mitigate unemployment and impel decent work. The introduction of private sector-driven, government-initiated mandatory one-year skills acquisition and developmental schemes for the youths as well as the provision of soft loans for participants to facilitate entrepreneurial ventures are recommended to reduce youth unemployment and promote economic development.

Abstract:
Youth unemployment in Nigeria, particularly in the north-central region has assumed a very cancerous disposition culminating into series of security challenges which have claimed many lives and properties. In the north-central region, the youths are the worst hit when it comes to the issue of unemployment at a very alarming rate. A glimpse at rush into the north-central states by job seekers and unproductive youths portray the catastrophic and ludicrousness of the youth unemployed problem. However, the governments of Kogi, Kwara, Niger, Benue, Nasarawa and Plateau states have continued to strive to contain the disastrous effect of youth unemployment by providing various youth empowerment initiatives and security measures to extricate the prevailing security challenges. In spite of governments effort to steam the menace of both youth unemployment and insecurity in the region remain abortive because youth unemployment and insecurity is on the rise. It is based on this that this paper sought to find out how governments across the region in collaboration with federal government have fared in engaging youth unemployment with youth empowerment initiatives in the north-central region which is the study area. The study adopted survey research methods. The study employed both primary and secondary sources in generating its data and utilized tables and for data presentation and the simple percentage for analysis. Adopted frustration-aggression and human needs as theoretical underpinning to explain the topic under investigation. Findings from the study revealed that there is strong connection between youth unemployment and insecurity in the north-central Nigeria. it also revealed that frequent herders/farmers clashes, lack of proper monitoring and evaluation, corruption, lack of political will, official mismanagement while its revealed that poverty, politics, ethnicity and religion were some of the factors responsible for security challenges in the north-central States.

Abstract:
This study examines the influence of macroeconomic factors, namely Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Inflation, Population and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on Youth Unemployment in Malaysia from 1991 to 2021 using time series analysis. The data was obtained from World Bank Data and analyzed using EViews software. The time series data was conducted using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test. The Auto-Regressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) approach to cointegration was then employed to determine the short- and long-term analysis of the series. The ARDL bound test analysis indicates that there is a cointegration relationship between macroeconomic factors and youth unemployment. The results suggest that economic growth, inflation, and population have a negative and significant impact on youth unemployment, while foreign direct investment has a positive but insignificant effect on youth unemployment in the long term. Upon analyzing the short-term outcome, it was observed that all factors exhibited a negative correlation and exerted a substantial impact on youth unemployment’s rate.

Abstract:
This study aims to investigate the issue of youth unemployment in Brunei by exploring the occupational aspirations of youth, the expectations of employers towards their employees, and the current policy initiatives of the government. The aspirations of youth were explored by conducting a series of focus groups among youths of different age groups and educational levels. The findings indicated that youths in Brunei preferred jobs that are prestigious, highly paid, stable, and are less likely to take risks. The expectations of employers, on the other hand, entailed a semi-structured interview to assess the employers' expectations for their current and/or prospective employees. The findings revealed that youths lack awareness on important employability skills that are critical for their entrance into and performance into the labour market. A majority of the employers attribute the lack of drive, entrepreneurial spirit, and awareness of the importance of leadership from an early age for employability and a need to strengthen collaborative development amongst the relevant agencies.

Abstract:
Youth unemployment is an urgent problem in the European Union, as well as in the regions of Latvia. The research aim is to examine the trends and the causes of youth unemployment in Latgale region and to make proposals for improving the situation. Youth unemployment is a significant problem in Latvia, as unemployed youngsters make up 13.1% of the total number of unemployed in the country, while in Latgale region the number of unemployed young people aged of 15-24 amounted to 8.8% of the total number of unemployed in 2014. The novelty of the present research is that the known unemployment causes for youths (aged of 15-24) were defined more precisely and new causes of youth unemployment in Latgale region were revealed. In Latgale, there are various causes of youth unemployment, such as lack of professional skills, poor preparedness for the labour market, lack of foreign language skills (especially the Russian language) as well as lack of social competences (cooperation or work in a team, communication, skills to take responsibility and lack of self-confidence).

Abstract:
This study investigates youth unemployment and violent crime in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria. Unemployed youths in the region have not only been neglected and left unattended to but have been faced with high rate of unemployment and violent crime. The youth population of any nation represents the driving force for development in such a nation. They are also the most volatile when their energies are misdirected to wrong endeavours. Available data show that youth unemployment is rampant in the Niger Delta Region and this has contributed immensely to their involvement in violent crimes such as armed robbery, kidnapping, political thuggery, military and other social vices. The paper concludes that increasing rural-urban migration, poorly designed school curricula, proliferation of educational institutions, population growth and the declining manufacturing sector are some of the causes of youth unemployment in Nigeria. Violent crimes found among the unemployed and jobless youths have contributed greatly to slowing down the prospects for sustainable development of the Niger Delta Region. The paper recommends among others that government economic and educational policies should be reviewed to reflect the incorporation of entrepreneurship and skills acquisition in the curricula of secondary and tertiary institutions in Nigeria as a way of addressing youth unemployment and violent crime.

Abstract:
The rate of unemployment among Nigerian youths is alarming and this unfortunate situation has led many youths to involve in various forms of crimes such as armed robbery, banditry, kidnapping, human trafficking, insurgency, to mention but a few. Though, governments at all levels are trying to minimize unemployment scenario through different interventions, such as poverty alleviation, agriculture anchor programme, trainings of youths on different technical programmes and so on. This paper proposes an ICT based framework for youth empowerment in Nigeria so as to complements the existing efforts on the joblessness. The paper x-rayed concept of ICT, youth empowerments and unemployment. It was also explained in the paper the causes of unemployment in Nigeria and governments efforts to reduce unemployment to barest minimum. The paper provides some recommendations, such as, provision of interest-free loans by federal government to youths who are willing to stand on their own for self-reliant and employer of labour in the nearest future.

Abstract:
Numerous studies have observed that governance matters in economic growth and subsequently employment generation. Despite the overwhelming evidences on the importance of this variable, there is surprisingly little research on how to promote it effectively in many developing countries. The problems facing the youth in the labour market has become more intense as a result, youths turn to less productive and less remunerative work at the informal sector. This paper therefore investigates the link between Governance, Youth Employment, Gross Capital Formation and Economic Growth. It utilizes the Granger non-Causality technique to explore the connection between these factors in sets. The discoveries uncover that there is bi-directional causal connection among governance and economic growth and furthermore between Economic growth and youth employment in Nigeria. The causality between Economic growth and capital formation is uni-directional from gross capital formation to Economic growth. It is discovered that there is no causal connection among employment and governance; and among employment and gross capital. It is recommended that the government should put on policies to increase growth so as to increase youth employment. Since capital formation causes growth and growth in turn causes youth employment; this implies that more investment in the country will indirectly cause youth employment. Government policies aimed at boosting both public and private investments in the country should be formulated; consequently the challenges of youth unemployment would be addressed.

Abstract:
Despite numerous interventions by government and development partners, youth unemployment has remained an intractable challenge in Ethiopia. It creates many social- economic problems in the economy of the country. This study however aimed to identifying the determinants of urban youth unemployment. The study adopted a cross sectional data of urban youth employment-unemployment. The town was purposively selected from the town of west shoa zones. The primary data was collected from 91 sample respondents through interview questionnaire from Guder town proportionally. A descriptive and econometric analysis was employed to meet the main objective of the study. The descriptive analyses results revealed that about 61.5 % of the youth are unemployed while 38.6 % are employed. Regression results from a binary logit model estimation show that sex, educational level, marital status, skill match and access to credit use of youth are found to be the significant determinants to urban youth unemployment while family prosperity and market information were statistically insignificant to urban youth unemployment in the town. The econometric results suggested the need for the government go aboard on creating jobs through identify employment opportunities and industrialization of agriculture. It also recommended that the government should facilitate formalization of familiar employment which reduces the problem of youth unemployment especially on skilled and educated youth and all secondary schools should have active partnership with employers. As well as government made to increase the availability of initial working capital, the identification of profitable (market gap) business areas and provision of practical training for urban youths to be engaged at their own business.

Abstract:
Young people have been greatly affected by unemployment which has led them to criminal activities as they try to earn a living.This research article seeks to explore the status of youth unemployment in Kenya, with reference to Kondele sub-county, KisumuCounty of Kenya. The descriptive survey research design was employed in this treatise to determine the influence of WorldVision International organization labor practices on youth unemployment in the aforementioned area, as well as the country atlarge. The study population comprised of the middle level employees working at World Vision International in Kisumu County.The population also comprised of the youth in Kondele Sub-county, Kisumu County. The selection of middle-level employees atWorld Vision International in Kisumu County as the population for the study is justified by their pivotal role in organizationaloperations. Middle-level employees form a crucial link between top-level management and front-line staff, often overseeingcritical functions and decision-making processes. In the context of this research article, the focus was on the 77 mid-tieremployees of World Vision International located in Kisumu County. Based on the research findings, it was recommended thatWorld Vision International should identify emerging industries in the region and design skills training programs that equip youthwith the specific competencies and knowledge required for these sectors. This will enhance their employability in growing fieldsand promote economic diversification.

Abstract:
The history of Nigeria is tainted with the absence of good moral and ethical values in the conduct of the ruling elites; this has adversely affected economic growth and development. Continued poverty reinforced by acute youth unemployment is a barrier to Nigerias quest for consolidating her democracy. A society of beggars, parasites and bandits cannot develop. Youth unemployment has been and is still a major problem in Nigeria. The statistics is staggering despite the political clamours against unemployment. The root of this problem originated in the visionless, selfish, mediocre, tribalistic and opportunistic small money-minded people masquerading as leaders who have continued to regenerate Nigerian political landscape over time. It is against this backdrop that this study examines the relationship between leadership failure and acute youth unemployment in Nigeria. A cross-sectional method was adopted and data was collected via a survey of three hundred (300) respondents in south-south geopolitical zone of Nigeria using non-probability sampling technique. Data collected were analyzed using correlation and linear regression analysis with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 21. The results of the study revealed that there is significant relationship between leadership failure and acute youth unemployment. As predicted, the study also showed that leadership failure exerts a positive and statistically significant impact on acute youth unemployment in Nigeria. On the basis of these findings, the study recommends among others that the government at all levels should empower the jobless youths through genuine empowerment schemes that would equip them to be self-employed and employer of labor, revamped agricultural development schemes to create job opportunities for the unemployed youths roaming about on the Nigeria streets and the actualization of youth empowerment would be impossible if the war against corruption is not intensified.

Abstract:
Unemployment affects approximately 73 million young people, representing 17.9% of the global youth workforce in 2022. Although there are several policies to prevent youth unemployment, digitalization seems to be one of the strongest. This research focuses on the impact of the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) on youth unemployment in 27 European countries from 2018 to 2021. For the research, the “Digital Economy and Society Index” was measured with four sub-dimensions. These were “connectivity”, “digital public services”, “human capital”, and “digital technology integration”. Additionally, “Youth Unemployment” was measured with three sub-dimensions. These included the “long-term youth unemployment rate”, “not in education, employment, or training rate”, and “youth unemployment rate”. The analyses were conducted using SmartPLS 4 and the results showed that the DESI reduces youth unemployment each year. According to the findings, the indicators of DESI can be an effective strategy for combating youth unemployment in European countries.

Abstract:
The youth unemployment rate is three times greater than the total unemployment rate in Malaysia, also it is moving more fluctuated and growing every year after a significant rise in 2015. Hence this study aims to determine the relationship between the influential factors and the youth unemployment rate and to examine which factors can serve as future indicators of youth unemployment rate in Malaysia. The annual basis of secondary data from 1992 to 2019 and the analysis methods are used Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression. The correlation results show that inflation rate, trade openness and urbanization are negatively correlated with youth unemployment rate, while Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), migration and exchange rate are positively correlated. Also, the regression results indicate only four factors which are FDI, trade openness, exchange rate, and urbanization are significant to the youth unemployment rate. Thus, they can serve as the future indicators of youth unemployment rate in Malaysia. More specifically, FDI and exchange rate are positively significant correlated with youth unemployment rate, whereas trade openness and urbanization are negatively significant related with youth unemployment rate.

This paper analyzes the determinants and consequences of youth unemployment in Honduras. The study is based on the estimation of error correction models that express youth unemployment in terms of real sector variables. The results indicate that exports, remittances and self employment reduce youth unemployment, while the expansion of the service sector increases it; other results show that youth unemployment is susceptible to economic activity in the other Central American countries, specifically to economic growth in Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua. Youth unemployment exerts negative impacts on Honduras’ productivity and on economic growth. The study also highlights the role of education on preventing youth unemployment and the importance of designing a Youth Agenda that would comprise several initiatives that are of special value to Honduran youth. It is hoped that these results would motivate policy makers and society in general to increase investments in the human capital areas so that youth avoid falling into the traps resulting from unemployment.

Education has a vital role in improving youth employment. Increasing youth unemployment rates and the high share of the unemployed educated young population indicate that the labor market cannot create good job opportunities. This study analyzes the relationship between youth unemployment and education in countries with a high level of youth unemployment but having different characteristics: Turkey and Spain. The analysis was conducted using Johansen Cointegration tests. The results indicate no unidirectional causal relationship from enrollment in higher education towards youth unemployment rate in Turkey and Spain. Besides, it has been observed that the increase in the higher education schooling rate does not decrease youth unemployment. The results showing the relationship between youth unemployment and education will be crucial in designing policies to improve job markets for youth.

Abstract:
What is youth studies for? One answer to this question points to the valuable, possibly unique, position youth research has as a window on processes of social change and of social continuity. Based on the author’s long-term engagement in youth research, from the early 1980s to now, this article reflects on how youth transitions to the labour market – and the way that they are thought about in youth studies and youth policy – have changed and stayed the same over the past 30 years. While the main empirical focus is on the UK, the article notes the wider relevance of many of the trends that are discussed. As well as looking backward, the article considers possibilities and challenges for the future; for youth, for youth research and for youth policy. In terms of young adults’ lives, the spreading shadow of unemployment, economic marginality and precariousness is described. In terms of research, it argues that, in order to achieve greater theoretical significance and impact for youth studies – and to better understand processes of social change and continuity – further strides need to be taken to overcome the enduring divide between youth cultural and youth transitions studies. Finally, on the basis of these reflections from youth studies, the article raises important questions for current and coming social and economic policy. Here the local – and global – significance of underemployment and the ‘myth of the skills economy’ are discussed.

Abstract:
PurposeCreating employment opportunities for the youth remains a dilemma for policymakers. In many cases, policies and programmes to tackle youth unemployment have produced little results, because such initiatives have failed to consider some fundamental inputs. In Ghana, youth unemployment rate has doubled or more than doubled the national average unemployment rate in recent years. The current study, therefore, examines how policies in the past two decades have affected youth unemployment rate and other development outcomes.Design/methodology/approachThe study reviewed national economic development policy documents from 1996 to 2017 and other relevant policies aimed at creating employment opportunities for the youth, applying the content analysis procedure. Four main policy documents were reviewed in this regard. Data from secondary sources including International Labour Organisation (ILO), World Bank (WB), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) were analysed to examine the trends in youth unemployment rate, human development index and GDP growth rate in Ghana over the years. There were also formal and informal consultations with youth and development practitioners.FindingsThe results of the study show that policies that promote general growth in the economy reduce youth unemployment, while continuation of existing youth programmes, expansion, as well as addition of new ones by new governments reduces youth unemployment rate. In particular, GDP growth and youth unemployment rate trend in opposite direction; periods of increased growth have reduced youth unemployment rate and vice versa. The period of Ghana Shared Growth and Development Agenda I & II witnessed better reduction (5.7%) in youth unemployment rate than any of the policy periods. This was not sustained, and despite the current youth employment initiatives, unemployment among young people still remained higher than the national average.Research limitations/implicationsThe study provides relevant information on how development policies and programmes affect youth unemployment rate over time. In as much as it is not the interest of the study, the study stops short of empirical estimation to determine the level of GDP growth rate that can reduce a particular level of youth unemployment, which is a case for further research. Nevertheless, the outcome of the study reflects the data and methodology used.Originality/valueTo the best of the knowledge of the authors, this is a first study in Ghana that has attempted to directly link development outcomes such as youth unemployment to national economic development policies, although there are studies that have analysed the policy gaps and implementation challenges. This paper, therefore, bridges the knowledge of how development policies affect youth employment opportunities, particularly for Ghana.

Abstract:
This study carried out an empirical investigation on the impact of minimum wage and inflationary pressure on youth unemployment in Nigeria from 1991 to 2019 using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag method to estimate the multiple regression model. The model captured the impact of Inflation, GDP Growth Rate, FDI, Government Expenditure, and Minimum Wage as determinants of youth unemployment in Nigeria. The results show that minimum wage exerts a significant impact on youth unemployment in the country, whereas inflation does not significantly influence youth unemployment. These results disapprove argument in the literature that supports minimum wage as an income policy to improve the welfare of workers in Nigeria because it raises the youth unemployment level in the country. Hence, the study concludes that minimum wage determination should be market-based. With this, the study recommends that the Nigerian government seek alternative measures of improving workers’ welfare and reduce youth unemployment in the country.

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship education has the mandate to equip the youth with functional knowledge and skills to build up their character, attitude and vision. It has vital role in developing eco-system that promotes innovation and solving unemployment challenges of nations. Government of Ghana has initiated direct job creation interventions to address youth unemployment challenges. Examples include: Skill Training and Employment Placement (STEP) Programme (2002-2004), National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP), now Youth Employment Agency (YEA) in 2006, Youth Enterprise Support (YES), now National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Plan (NEIP) in 2014, and the recent Nation Builders Corps. Despite the above efforts, unemployment rates in Ghana instead of reducing, increased from 2.15% in 2015, 2.26% in 2016 to 2.36% in 2017; whilst youth unemployment rate increased from 4.51% in 2015, 4.72% in 2016 to 4.9% in 2017. Therefore, this study attempts to conceptualize the relevance of entrepreneurial education to solving the youth unemployment challenges in Ghana. The study concluded that entrepreneurial education has the potentials of solving youth unemployment challenges in the society.

Abstract:
Nigeria is passing through a period of uncertainty and pervasive economic recession which has further aggravated the problem of poverty and unemployment among Nigerian youths. These jobless youths take solace in all form of atrocities and social vices that pose a serious threat to sustainable development of the nation. This research took a cursory look at the concepts of poverty, youth unemployment and viable entrepreneurship education. It highlighted the lofty objectives of viable entrepreneurship education in Nigeria. The various factors responsible for poverty and youth employment in Nigeria were identified. Attention was also directed to the role of viable entrepreneurship education in eradicating poverty and youth unemployment in Nigeria. Based on the findings, it was recommended, among others, that the curriculum of educational institutions in Nigeria should be more pragmatic and have built-in-job training programmes which would enable all students to acquire relevant entrepreneurial skills required for self-employment, job and wealth creation and poverty eradication.

Abstract:
<em>Jobs are generated by initiating and growing small businesses within underdeveloped economies. Unemployment among youths is a critical problem confronting Nigeria (Nwogwugwu &amp; Irechukwu, 2015). Unemployment leads to less growth and a drop-in consumer spending. Increased unemployment generates lowered business output. Unemployment results in welfare loss from lowered output, income, and wellbeing which hinder social progress of nations. Nevertheless, unemployed youths with small business initiatives experience financial constraints and lack access to startup capitals. The purpose of this study was to explore experiences of some owners who succeeded despite lack of access to formal and informal sources of initial capitals. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with 15 small business owners in Lagos who started as unemployed youths. We purposefully selected participants, used thematic for data analysis, NVivo 10 software for coding and interpretation. Findings revealed 3 critical challenges to access initial capitals for startups by unemployed youths including: (a) inability to provide collaterals, (b) Reliance on insufficient private finance and short term overdrafts, and (c) bureaucracy. Result may become basis for future interventions and support programs. Authorities and youth leaders could use information for trainings and support programs to help unemployed youth access startup capitals for small business.</em>

Abstract:
Youth unemployment is an issue that has increasingly troubled western countries since the 1970s. This paper provides data on youth unemployment in Australia and the Netherlands, and discusses government policy in both countries. The rate of youth unemployment was similar in both countries in the mid 1980s, but since then it has declined dramatically in the Netherlands, while changing little in Australia. Youth unemployment policy in Australia has been driven by the concept of obligation, while in the Netherlands youth unemployment policy has been organised around the principle of a guarantee for youth. The Dutch labour market programme offers more continuity and coherence than the rather ad hoc Australian programmes. However, the paper argues that youth labour market policy in both countries is of a controlling nature, and does not serve marginalised youth. Moreover, policy in neither country meets OECD criteria for effective labour market programs. The paper concludes with the description of a Dutch program which, to a large extent, does meet the OECD criteria, and demonstrates that a more constructive approach to youth unemployment is possible.

Abstract:
Subject. We consider the unemployment and entrepreneurship among young people. Objectives. The aim of the study is to identify causes of youth unemployment and entrepreneurship in the modern world pattern. Methods. The study rests on a holistic approach, using the methods of statistical analysis and cluster analysis. Results. We specify the essence of youth unemployment, reveal the growth of unemployment in low- and middle-income countries, which is a driver of youth entrepreneurship. The problem of unemployment in low- and middle-income countries is addressed by shifting priorities from reducing the unemployment to increasing the employment. The high level of unemployment among young people prevails in developed countries with a high share in GDP and industrial output. First of all, this is due to the need to obtain a high level of education and qualifications for high-tech sectors of economy. Limited educational opportunities in low- and middle-income countries are not an obstacle to self-employment and entrepreneurship. The findings clarify the ontology of youth unemployment and entrepreneurship in the modern world, creating new competencies in relation to the public policy aimed at unemployment reduction. Conclusions. The specifics of youth unemployment and entrepreneurship in the modern world is associated with consistently high indicators of poverty level of the working youth, which depends on gender characteristics. High unemployment is observed among young people, both men and women, however, the employment among male youth is significantly higher.

While bound up with the overall employment situation, this challenge has its own dimensions and therefore requires specific responses. Unemployment or job difficulties have always been problems, especially for youth as they need to face it once they graduate. The government invents a lot of activities to cope with the unemployment issue in the country by cultivating entrepreneurship in society with a focus on students and youth to transform them to be an entrepreneur. So that this could lessen the problem at an early stage. Therefore, this study aims to identify the factors that contribute to the success of youth in entrepreneurship including business plan, business support program, and risk-taking, and how each of these influences’ youth entrepreneurship. The significance of this study is especially for youths include those who may leave their education and started their first jobs. Youth could expose the factors that lead to the effectiveness of the program. Even the youth may come from different fields, this could help them find the job if the current job mismatch with their field or being unemployed. A total of 200 youth respondents were collected from the youths who have become entrepreneurs and youth entrepreneurship has never been to obtain relevant data.

Abstract:
This article focuses on analysing the link between the rigidity of labour markets, the youth unemployment rate and the number of emigrants in the 19-30 age group within the EU in the years 2009-2020. The calculations show a very strong link (0.91-0.95) between the EPL index and the youth unemployment rate during the observed period. The nexus between youth unemployment and youth migration is confirmed as well. The linear dependence fluctuated between 0.61 and 0.65 in the same period. Furthermore, the correlation between total unemployment and total emigration reached up to 0.85 in the post-crisis period. The labour market rigidity and the EPL strictness can have, therefore, several effects; in addition to youth unemployment and youth emigration, total emigration is stimulated as well.

Abstract:
As youth unemployment has been gradually increasing over the years, it is crucial to investigate which economic indicators that significantly contributed in affecting the Malaysia’s youth unemployment rate. In this study, 30 annual data observations from 1991 until 2020 were used to investigate the empirical relationship between youth unemployment rate (YUR) and gross domestic product (GDP), foreign direct investment (FDI), inflation rate (INFR), gross domestic savings (GDS) and trade (TRD) through multiple linear regression analysis using the ordinary least square method. It is hypothesised that these selected macroeconomic determinants have an effect in influencing the Malaysia’s unemployment amongst youth. The results showed that there is positive significant relationship between youth unemployment rate and trade. Whereas, negative significant relationship was found between youth unemployment rate and the GDP as well as GDS. In contrary, there is no significant relationship exists between YUR with FDI and inflation rate.

Abstract:
Youth unemployment is important indicators of the development of the regions of Ukraine and the labour market as a whole. In Ukraine, this indicator is characterized by significant territorial differentiation, caused by the level of socio-economic and innovative development of regions, the social and economic security of regions, the level of urbanization, investment attractiveness of the territory, development of small business, etc. In 2018, more than 280,000 young people were unemployed in Ukraine, accounting for one-third of the total number of registered unemployed in Ukraine. That is why an important scientific work is to analyze the dynamics and current state of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine, to identify trends in the spread of this negative phenomenon. The Ukrainian youth as a whole is characterized by a low level of competitiveness in the labour market due to the development of specialities not required in the labour market, insufficient, in some places, the level of professional training, lack of practical skills. The problems of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine are caused by both national and regional factors. The interdependence of youth unemployment in regional labour markets and the magnitude of youth migration flow are clear. The presented work describes the level of youth unemployment in the EU countries compared to the situation in Ukraine and concludes that the global processes and trends of its manifestation are widespread. The dynamics of unemployment rates and youth employment in Ukraine in 2000-2017 is analyzed. The analysis of the dynamics of unemployment and youth employment indicators identifies the periods in which they are spread and the causes that have influenced the significant changes in the dynamics of indicators. The regional differences in youth unemployment in Ukraine were identified in retrospect and the results for 2000, 2010 and 2017 were visualized. Ranking method and index method were used to group the regions of Ukraine by the indicators of youth unemployment in 2000-2017. Trends in the dynamics of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine have been identified.

Today, youth unemployment is a common agenda and a critical issue of all countries; particularly in developing countries. In Ethiopia, lack of employment opportunities for educated young people is a critical development challenges facing the country. The objective of this study was to identify the determinants of graduate youth unemployment. To answer the research objective data was collected by a structured questionnaire from 312 samples of respondents, wherein a snow ball sampling technique was used and data was analyzed using mixed research design, descriptive and casual design; where a binary logistic regression model used to examine the relationship between dependent and independent variables. The result indicated that amongst the nine variables of the determinants of graduate youth unemployment; education, number of graduates, work experience, career advice, market information, family income, aspire to the low-income job, and education quality, all were significantly affected unemployment rate except entrepreneurial ability. As a result, based on these findings, it can be recommended that there is a critical need for government, NGOs and all other stakeholders to work on these determinants to reduce graduate unemployment.
