World Bank report on the progress of education reforms in the MENA countries (Middle East and North Africa), as of 2008.

This report is published by the International Labour Organization (ILO). It offers a comparative overview on the labour market situation for young people worldwide. The focus is to detect reasons for youth unemployment and youth poverty inspite of work. One of the principal findings is that a global deficit of decent work opportunities has resulted in a situation in which one out of every three youth in the world is either seeking but unable to find work, has given up the job search entirely or is working but still living below the US$2 a day poverty line. Without the right foothold from which to start out right in the labour market, young people are less able to make choices that will improve their own job prospects and those of their future dependents. This, in turn, perpetuates the cycle of insufficient education, low-productivity employment and working poverty from one generation to the next. The report, therefore, adds urgency to the UN call for development of strategies aimed to give young people a chance to make the most of their productive potential through decent employment. This report provides empirical research as well as quantitative assessments of the realities of youth labour markets to build an analytical starting block from which countries can identify the main challenges facing youth for the process of designing the policies most suited to their particular situations.
