To understand this disconnect and what can be done about it, McKinsey built on the methodology used in its 2012publication,Education to Employment: Designing a System thatWorks, and concentrated on four broad questions: (1) Is the scale of the youth-unemploymentprobleminEuropearesultof lackofjobs, lackofskills,or lackofcoordination?(2)Whataretheobstaclesthatyouthfaceontheirjourney from education to employment? (3)Which groups of youth and employers in Europe are struggling themost? (4)What can be done toaddresstheproblem?Toanswerthesequestions,5,300youth,2,600employers,and700postsecondary-educationprovidersweresurveyedacross8countriesthattogetherare home to almost 73 percent of Europe’s 5.6 million jobless youth: France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and the UnitedKingdom.Morethan100programs in25countrieswerealsoexaminedtoprovideexamplesofcompanies,governments,educationproviders,andnongovernmentalorganizationsthatmayberelevanttoEurope.
