Youth Employment and Income Generation. A field study in Rib?u? District, Mozambique

      Аннотация: The African country of Mozambique has been undertaking a remarkable development process within the past. However, this could not be translated into significantly decreasing poverty– or unemployment rates. Due to a high population growth and large amounts of jobseekers every year, the economy is not able to create a corresponding number of jobs. Especially amongst young the unemployment remains high. Moreover, there seems to be a crucial mismatch between the demand of the labour market and the knowledge provided by the education sector. This work is based on a qualitative field study carried out in Rib?u?, a district located in Nampula province, in the northern part of Mozambique. It wants to shed further light on employment possibilities young people have and aims on fostering a vast image of their situation by examining sectors such as education, agriculture and politics.
