Overview of the Implementation of the EU Youth Strategy in the Field of Employment

Summary/Abstract: This paper provides an overview of teh implementation of the EU Youth Strategy for the promotion of youth employment and entrepreneurship in the EU Member States and four non-EU states: Croatia, Montenegro, Norway and Switzerland. It relies upon the National reports presenting the policy iniciatives designed and accomplished during the first cycle (2010-2012) in these countries and submitted in response to a questionnaire developed by the European Commission and an examination of policy documents, academic literature and statistical data. The comparative analysis reveals a shared awareness of the gravity of the problems accumulated in the labour market integration of young people and attests to the enourmous efforts put forward on European, national, regional and local levels for overcoming youth disadvantage.
