“…Within-group variability has also been addressed regarding the transition of these youths into the labor market. Being a NEET covers distinct profiles/situations ranging from being a long-term, discouraged youth, who is no longer actively searching for work to a youth who is voluntarily out of work or school/training systems so as to travel (Carcillo, Fernandéz, Konigs, & Minea, 2015).…”

“…Recent research has detailed more nuanced differences between rural NEETs and rural youth at large. At an individual level, rural NEETs display lower professional skills, are more likely to face longterm unemployment (Carcillo et al, 2015), and show limited skills and lower access to new technologies, like the Internet, due to higher risks of early school-leaving (EUROSTAT, 2017). Family support dominates rural NEETs' informal support network, contrary to rural youths overall, who display more diverse and flexible social networks.…”

This article discusses how to involve rural youths not in employment, education, or training (or NEETs) in agriculture. A Portuguese network-based project called Terra Nostra, carried out from 2013 to 2015 to engage and train NEETs in ecoagriculture activities, was examined to address this issue. The study focused on three aspects: a reanalysis of Terra Nostra's final report, based on the bioecological model, targeting typical problems with NEETs' involvement and how the project aimed to overcome them; the lessons learned from the project according to the literature; and the state of the art regarding identical social interventions with NEETs in Portugal and the rest of Europe. A major conclusion stemming from the analysis is that similar projects will need to address the limitations of employment public services in reaching out to rural NEETs and the state's excessive protectionism of the sector.

“…The young people are usually last to be hired and the first to be let go (last-in-first-out, LIFO). Economic recession created substantial barriers for a new generation of labour market entrants as it negatively affects their school-to-work transition [Jimeno, Rodriguez-Palenzuela 2002;Carcillo et al, 2015; OECD 2016]labour market institutions and macroeconomic shocks at explaining cross-country di\u00a4erences in youth unemployment rates. We \u2026nd that the \ u2021uctuations of the youth population size caused by the baby boomof the 1950s and 1960s and the subsequent decline of fertility in many European countries are positively associated with \u2021uctuations in youth unemployment rates (relative to the unemployment rate of prime age men.…”

Literature review has shown that the demographic dimension of the labour market changes remains generally overlooked. The paper aims at filling the gap. The main question asked in the paper is: what are the long-term consequences of the crisis 2008-2009 for youth labour market in the European countries? In order to answer the question, the changes in youth employment to population ratio in 33 European countries are analysed. Any change in the employment to population ratio is a result of combined demographic and labour market effect. While the demographic changes vary between countries; it is argued that a crosscountry comparative analysis that does not take into account the role of demographic shifts is likely to provide a misleading picture of the labour market conditions.

“…Empirical studies usually reveal that individual characteristics such as low levels of education or its poor quality, exclusion or suspension from school, migrant status, poor physical or mental health, substance abuse, teenage pregnancy, early marriage and early childbirth are associated with higher probability of becoming a NEET [Coles et al, 2002;Eurofound, 2012;Carcillo et al 2015;Mirza-Davies, 2015;Cornaglia et al, 2012;Baggio et al, 2015;Kelly, McGuinness, 2013]. Some personality traits such as low self-esteem and an external locus of control also matter.…”

This article addresses the issue of socio-demographic factors of becoming NEET, i.e. dropping out of employment, education or training for individuals aged 15-24. Empirical analysis was based on the micro-data of Russian Labour Force Survey (LFS) by Federal State Statistics Service for 1995-2015. The paper introduces the results of the analysis of the impact of education on NEET status, which were conducted for Russia on the basis of regression estimations for the first time. Contrary to previous studies, higher education doesn't provide a universal "safety net" from NEET status for all young people. NEET-unemployed youth in Russia mainly have tertiary education of one level or another, while NEET inactivity is concentrated among those who have only primary education and the size of the effect becomes even more pronounced for rural residents and females.
