🚨 1 in 8 young people aged 16-24 are not in work or education – the highest it’s been in eight years 📈 This is not an unfamiliar challenge, but to tackle it we need new, local solutions 💫 That’s why we set up Connected Futures 🔗 Find out more 👇 tinyurl.com/3skfzrab
Why are rates of adolescent mental health problems increasing? This is a really helpful list that highlights just how many different factors might be involved -- and why the answer is unlikely to just be 'social media' (list by @YF_Foundation, taken from now-closed grant call)
Concerning figures today showing a significant rise in the number of young people not earning or learning. Now more young people NEET than vacancies (900k NEET Vs 898k vacancies). A key issue for the labour market and unlocking talent of young people @tonywilsonIES @ljrawlings
Today's @ONS figures reveal yet another significant rise for young people not in employment, education or training (NEET) in the UK. Dr Andrea Barry, Principal Economist at Youth Futures Foundation, comments on the latest data:

This is a really important piece Why are so many young people not looking for work? - The Times and The Sunday Times apple.news/A1ngm9wdIQYamN…
The data for young people is really worrying. This is number not in full-time education or employment: blue 'economic inactivity' and yellow unemployment. The blue is basically highest it has ever been. Yes, ever. 3/4 million young people outside labour force and education.
🚀 Alongside @ADRUK & @YF_Foundation, we're co-funding a youth transitions research project 🤝 Our mission: reduce educational inequalities, improve outcomes, build research communities, prioritise key areas & enhance knowledge sharing through administrative data 📊

Important new report on the key risk factors for young people becoming NEET undertaken by @NatCen for Youth Futures. Will help inform our future programmes and provide detailed national and local data for policymakers and commissioners.
New research identifies the key risk factors for young people becoming NEET 📊 The report reveals that there are two groups of young people facing multiple types of marginalisation that are associated with a substantial increase in becoming NEET. youthfuturesfoundation.org/news/new-resea…
Delighted to launch this new resource, great work by the team to create something that is easy to use and informative

Forget the noise about the UK having too many graduates: the real problem is a huge shortage of workers educated to sub-degree level and far too many workers with nothing above GCSE or A Level. A thread based on three reports out today from @resfoundation and @CEP_LSE …
Today is our Connected Futures conference, showcasing the evidence, learning, and insights from the first year of our flagship place-based programme. The event will be an opportunity to learn more about place-based and youth-led approaches to tackling youth unemployment.
