Abstract

Use of the NEET concept for analysing youth labour market issues has to date been limited largely to industrialised countries. Little is therefore known about the situation of NEET youth in developing world. The current paper constitutes part of a three-part study aimed at beginning to fill this gap. It analyzes the dynamics of the NEET youth population in Brazil and Indonesia, drawing on data from the Brazil Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicilios Survey (PNAD) and the Indonesia National Labour Force Survey (Sakernas).
