A rapid growth in the world's population, coupled with an international financial crisis, have led to a new problem — the highest number of unemployed youth in history, a UN report has revealed.
The report, titled Youth Employment: Youth Perspectives on the Pursuit of Decent Work in Changing Times, was released yesterday. It notes concerns that the unemployed youth have over the lack of job opportunities and how they would like to see an increase in investments aimed at creating employment.
The report drew attention to the "disturbingly high" levels of youth unemployment in the Middle East and North Africa.
