Description:
Neither good quality education nor productive employment is universally available to the world’s youth. The ILO, in their Global Employment Trends for Youth 2020 estimate that:One-fifth of young people currently have NEET status, which means they are neither gaining experience in the labour market, nor receiving an income from work, nor enhancing their education and skills. Clearly, their full potential is not being realized, though many may be contributing to the economy through unpaid work, which is particularly true of young women. (ILO 2020a).
