Europe’s under-25 joblessness woes
5 million under-25 job-hunters hit the European dole lists at the beginning of 2009. That’s one million more than the year before! A whopping 39% of 16- to 24-year-olds in Spain are unemployed – and they’re not alone. A generation of graduates speak out
- Young graduates job-hunt in Italy, Portugal and Greece
- Young Spaniards escape crisis by moving around in Europe
- Europe's five million unemployed youth
- Young Europeans would like to be Scandinavian
- Europe's youth stack up the degrees to shun the dole
- 2009's graduate flavour comes in crisis: part one, England and Ireland
Brussels: the old age of youth
The crisis is synonymous with young unemployent. The capital of Europe is currently baiting its breath for the European elections between 4 and 7 June 2009. Within, 33% are young jobshunters.
