About the conference

A Country that matches our skills.
A Youth Guarantee in Italy, too.

Youth unemployment has reached its highest ever (37%) in Italy and the youth who there are more than 2
mln youths who are not in work, education or training.
These unacceptably high rates show the harsh reality of young people left alone with their destinies. A future
that represses competences, ratifies social and family starting conditions and forces young people to work
under indecent conditions or to flee abroad.
The European Commission with its Youth Package, launched at the end of last year, decided to intervene and
promote some measures, among which the Youth Guarantee, i.e. the engagement of public institutions to
assist youths during their transition into the abour market.
It is an instrument aimed at empowering young people to be the “warranty” of a more dynamic, competent
and innovative country.
The objective of CGIL through this initiative is to ask for the launch of a Youth Guarantee in Italy and to
present our proposal to the general public.
