“…In Brazil, structural inequalities are similarly reflected in the increased vulnerability of youth, women, black and mixed-race Brazilians in the national labour market (IBGE 2018;Costa et al 2021). Intersectional vulnerabilities linked to poverty, gender and ethnicity have been found to impact youth access to employment and educational attainment not only Brazil, but in diverse countries, such as the UK (Zucotti and O'Reilly 2019), South Africa (Holte, Swart, and Hilamo 2018), Peru (Alcazar, Bullard, and Balarin 2020) and Sri Lanka (Abayasekara and Gunasekara 2020;Wickremeratne and Dunusinghe 2018).…”

Globally, one fifth of individuals aged 15-24 are 'not in employment, education or training' (NEET). NEETs have become an increasingly important notion in international debate, although criticisms are directed at its all-encompassing nature and lack of concern with the intergenerational, gendered, social and systemic inequalities that influence young people becoming NEETs. Prevalence of youth NEETs is especially high in Latin America, with women disproportionally affected. Brazil has one of the highest absolute numbers of NEETs in LAC. This paper uses data from the last Brazilian census to examine contextual drivers of NEETs in Brazil, and to critically assess broader implications for policy. In Brazil, states with higher coefficients of social inequality and levels of criminality are more likely to have higher proportion of youth NEET. Globally, social inequalities associated with gender, race and crime are pervasive drivers of young NEET status. Latin American youth are in a particularly disadvantageous position. Policies that aim to overcome social exclusion and marginalisation of youth need to focus on systemic drivers of the NEET condition among vulnerable subgroups of young people.

“…Literatürdeki çalışmalar, kadınların erkeklere göre NEİY olma durumlarının daha fazla olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Sri Lanka'da yapılan bir çalışmada, kadınların NEİY oranının erkeklere göre daha yüksek olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır (Wickremeratne & Dunusinghe, 2018).…”

“…Sri Lanka'da yapılan bir çalışma sonuçlarına göre, en yüksek NEİY oranlarına evli ve dul olan gençler sahipken; en düşük NEİY oranlarına hiç evlenmemiş gençlerin sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Bu nedenle söz konusu çalışmada medeni durumun Sri Lanka özelinde NEİY olmanın önemli bir belirleyicisi olduğu ifade edilmektedir (Wickremeratne & Dunusinghe, 2018).…”

NEİY statüsü, istihdamda, eğitimde ya da yetiştirmede bulunmayan gençleri ifade etmektedir. NEİY olgusunun yaygınlaşması ve NEİY statüsünün bireye, topluma ve ülke ekonomisine yönelik çeşitli olumsuz sonuçlar doğurması bu olguya yönelik ilgiyi arttırmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada NEİY olgusunun nedenlerini, etkilerini ve mücadele politikalarını incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Söz konusu faktörlerin tespiti için literatür taraması yoluyla NEİY gençlere yönelik yapılan araştırmalar sınıflandırılmış ve incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda NEİY olgusunun heterojen bir yapıya sahip olduğu ve NEİY tanımlarının, nedenlerinin, etkilerinin ve mücadele yöntemlerinin pek çok faktöre bağlı olarak geliştiği ve birbirinden farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Tüm bu farklılıklar göz önünde bulundurularak yapılan sınıflandırmada, NEİY olma nedenlerinin bireysel özelliklerden, aileden, çevreden ve emek piyasasından kaynaklı olduğu görülürken; NEİY olmanın birey, aile, çevre, politik yaklaşım ve emek piyasası TÜRKİYE'DE EĞİTİM, İSTİHDAM VE YETİŞTİRMEDE OLMAYAN GENÇLER YOUTH NOT IN EMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION OR TRAINING (NEET) IN TURKEY NEDEN VE ETKİ BOYUTLARIYLA "NE EĞİTİMDE NE İSTİHDAMDA NE DE YETİŞTİRMEDE (NEİY)" OLAN GENÇLER 2

“…In the study using the regression method, it was concluded that the children of families with low educational level had a higher risk of being included in the NEET group. Similarly, Wickremeratne and Dunusinghe [38] conducted an analysis for Sri Lanka and found that low-educated parents could not guide their children correctly. Also, Salvà-Mut et al [39] and Barth et al [40] investigated the NEET problem in different countries and stated that the education level of family members should be increased in order to minimize this problem.…”

Strategic Mapping of Youth Unemployment With Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Hesitant Fuzzy DEMATEL Based on 2-Tuple Linguistic Values

et al. 2020

This study aims to identify the factors that affect youth unemployment in emerging countries. For this purpose, 3 dimensions and 12 criteria are selected as a result of literature review. The analysis process has 3 different steps. Firstly, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets are created with the help of 2-tuple linguistic data. Additionally, relation matrix is generated by considering these fuzzy sets. In the second process, defuzzification process is occurred. Finally, the dimensions and criteria are weighted with Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) approach by using defuzzified data sets. The findings indicate that economic and social inequalities play the most significant role for youth unemployment in emerging countries. On the other side, it is also identified that economic crisis and insufficient education conditions are also important issues which lead to youth unemployment in these countries. Hence, it is recommended that governments should implement fair tax management practices in these countries to minimize economic and social inequalities. Furthermore, education conditions should be improved in the countries. In this framework, an effective education plan can be designed by cooperating with companies in the industry. Thus, labor needs in industry can be identified and education system can be designed according to the needs in the market. With the help of these implementations, it can be much easier for young people to find a job. INDEX TERMS2-tuple linguistic values, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environment, fuzzy DEMATEL, NEET, emerging economies.
