Youth Unemployment

Unemployment among  graduates is attributed to delayed transition from school to work. The delay in securing jobs normally leads to erosion of skills and lower lifetime earnings resulting into poverty at the family level (UN, 2011).

It is important to know the contribution of  entrepreneurship either out of necessity or preference in providing solutions to rising or persistence unemployment among high school or university graduates
