Libya Tops North Africa Youth Unemployment
The International Labour Organization report reveals that Libya recorded the highest youth unemployment rate in North Africa during 2025, at 50.1%, compared to the overall unemployment rate of 18.8%. This comes amid economic and political challenges, with widening skills gaps and a limited ability to create stable jobs due to slowed growth, geopolitical tensions, and technological shifts. The figures indicate that the youth unemployment problem in Libya requires effective policies to create job opportunities, align educational outputs with market needs, and promote productive investment, in order to address current challenges and increase young people's participation in the economy.
