The phenomenon of NEETs (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) has become a significant socio-economic issue in Italy and across Europe. This paper explores the complex and multifaceted nature of the NEET condition, focusing on the psychological, social, and structural risks associated with young people being disengaged from educational and employment systems. It investigates the primary causes, including economic crisis, educational shortcomings, regional disparities, and gender-based inequalities, emphasizing the South-North divide in Italy. The paper also analyzes institutional responses and policies, such as “Garanzia Giovani”, and evaluates their effectiveness. Testimonies from NEET individuals provide a human dimension to the statistics. The study concludes by advocating for tailored interventions, stronger education-labor connections, and systemic reforms to enhance youth inclusion and social cohesion.
Keywords: NEETs; Youth unemployment; Educational failure; School-to-work transition; Social exclusion; Active labor policies; Education reform.
