abstract: 'Youth unemployment is a contentious subject in Greenland, and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Greenlandic government is particularly concerned with reducing the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
number of young Greenlanders who are not in employment or education.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using survey data from the Greenlandic Labour Force Survey (LFS), we
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
turn our attention to NEETs (Not in Education, Employment, or Training)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Greenland and focus on young people aged 17-29. First, we take an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
international outlook to explore whether the NEET challenge is greater
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Greenland than in other selected countries. Then, we explore how
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NEETs differ from their young counterparts in employment or in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education. Furthermore, we compare NEETS to the older group who are also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
not in employment to explore potential differences between groups. We
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discuss educational opportunities in Greenland, geographic mobility, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
poor health as significant barriers for labour market and educational
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation. The chapter ends by outlining and discussing Greenlandic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy initiatives to increase employment and participation in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education.'
