Youth Educaon and Employment Profiles, produced by FHI 360's Educaon Policyand Data Center, present educaon and employment characteriscs of youthacross countries. Data are drawn from School to Work Transion Surveys (SWTS),which were carried out in 32 countries between 2013 and 2015. Funded by theMastercard Foundaon and supported by the Internaonal Labour Organizaon(ILO), they paint a comprehensive picture of youth employment, educaonal at-tainment, and schooling across countries. These profiles are designed for students,researchers and prac oners who seek country-level snapshots of youth educa-on and employment condions, and were developed in consultaon with FHI 360program staff. The educaon and employment categories presented in the profiles are computedby EPDC analysts, and sub-divide employment into salaried and unsalaried, basedupon whether respondents report earning a wage. A respondent is considered un-employed if they are not working but are acvely seeking work, while they are in-acve if they are not in school and not in the labor force. Educaon categories aredetermined based upon a respondent's highest level completed. In some cases, itis necessary to collapse educaon levels into binary categories (i.e. low versushigh), based on the distribuon of educaonal aainment within a country. So-cioeconomic status is proxied by parent's educaonal aainment.

This Venn diagram displays schooling and employment categoriesfor the populaon of 15-29 year olds in the country. The circlesshow the total populaon for each category, and the overlappingporons show the populaon in both categories (for example,both in school and employed). In the upper le hand corner is thepercentage of 15-29 year olds who are not in school and not in

the labor force.
