Youth Employment Initiative

The Youth Employment Initiative (YEI) is a European program aimed at supporting young people aged 15 to 24 who are unemployed or not in education or training. It provides funding and resources to help create new jobs, apprenticeships, and training opportunities, particularly in regions with high youth unemployment. By investing in youth employment, the initiative seeks to improve skills, boost labor market participation, and promote economic growth. Essentially, YEI is designed to help young people transition smoothly into the workforce and build a sustainable career path.
