The goal of the project is to strengthen the school‑to‑work transition and reduce long‑term labour market scarring among young people by providing clear, evidence‑based explanations of what is happening in the youth labour market, particularly in relation to the spike in unemployment observed in 2025, why this moment represents a break from past trends, and what policymakers can do to improve school‑to‑work transitions.
