The rise in unemployment is having a major impact on young people in higher education around the world, especially those who have followed a course in public education. This constitutes a major obstacle to economic development. On the one hand we have companies looking for talented young people with very specific skills, on the other hand we have more and more young people who choose higher education courses by default or by spite.
