New research shows mental health problems are surging among the young in Europe. In Britain, 35% of 16-24 year olds are neither employed nor in education, at least 1/3 because of mental health issues.
The percentage of the population defined as ‘not in education, employment or training’ (NEET) in 2023 is estimated to be 11.9%. This is 0.5 percentage points lower compared to the same period in 2022 where the estimated figure was 12.3%.
So where is FT getting its figures from? Or did they just pretend that training is the same thing as inactivity? (•_•)
