The projects will be presented today at Binario F
“The emergency is plain to see. Today, according to the most recent Istat data, 1.7 million young men and women, nearly 20% of the population aged 15-29, is a NEET, someone neither in education, employment, or training. This percentage, which is 7 points higher than the European average, mainly interest women (20.5%), youth in southern Italy (27.9%), and foreigners (28.8%). In addition, in Italy, women have a far lesser chance of being employed than men. The female unemployment rate currently stands at 8.7% against 6.8% for men, and this gap increases for the 15-24 age group. Moreover, women have a non-participation rate of 42.7% against 24.3% for men.
These two innovative projects address NEETs and women with digital training courses aiming to custom tailor learning for the most requested professional profiles, selected by the Fondo per la Repubblica Digitale (the fund created through a partnership between public and private social enterprise). The projects will be presented today in Rome by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale and its partners.”
