In the world’s least developed countries, every year about 15 million young people enter a labour force in which the large majority of workers suffer from unemployment, underemployment, or vulnerable employment (UNFPA, 2011; International Labour Organization, 2011). The rate of youth unemployment worldwide remains at very high levels, both in developed and developing countries (International Labour Organization, 2013). Youth unemployment is highest in North Africa and Western Asia (United Nations, 2014b). Almost everyone works some kind of job, but these are typically subsistence activities characterized by very low productivity.
