After leaving school, many young people in MENA remain unable to find work or they secure jobs with limited prospects. Youths often remain stuck in low-wage, unstable, informal jobs with limited social protection, or jobs that offer few opportunities to strengthen their skills or increase their employability for better jobs. Unless the labor market achieves realignment to increase the demand for skills, the potential contribution of the education sector to the economy will not prove fully realized. To align the skills that young people acquire more closely with those that the labor market requires, employers have a role to play in providing on-the-job training. Improving the flow of labor market information for the decision making of employers and students may also facilitate school-to-work transitions.
