Integration In The World Of Work
The problem
Our country holds the highest youth unemployment rate and one of the highest in-work poverty rates in Europe.
Young people with low levels of education, limited job experience, lack of basic skills, and access to training, are therefore trapped in unemployment.
The humanitarian donor financing system is overstretched and unsustainable, while also fails to effectively address the development needs to increase resilience, help people lift themselves out of poverty, and ensure dignified lives.
