🎓 EU Unemployment Hits a Record Low… But Not for Gen Z.


LE.MO.N - August 5, 2025 - 0 comments

Something’s not adding up 🧮

Good news first:
📉 The EU just hit its lowest unemployment rate ever. Historic moment, right?

But here’s the twist nobody’s clapping for:

❗ Youth unemployment is still double the general average.

As of March 2025, 14.5% of young people in the EU are jobless.

🧠 So… what’s going wrong?

🎓 Is our education system out of touch?
📉 Is the job market too rigid or too competitive?
🧩 Or are we stuck in a system built for another generation?

You’ve got degrees, motivation, side hustles — and yet, many are still bouncing between unpaid internships, short-term gigs, or ghost job apps.


💬 Your turn: What’s the fix?

🔧 Universal basic income?
🎯 Skills-based hiring?
📚 Education reform?
🧪 Something totally new?
