2.  Problem:
Youth Unemployment and Increasing population compared to slower
growth of employment.
 Severity:
Critical on long term.
 Situation in Turkey:
High brain drain, 9.4 % Unemployment, Questionably qualified workers.
 Thoughts of affected:
If you want to be a honest, succesful worker, you better look elsewhere.
 Brain Drain:

http://www.burslu.org/devrim/BrainDrain.pdf
 Reasons: many, including:
Prestige, Higher chance of employment in desired job, green card
advantages, better environment.

3. Education:
 Theory focused, unrealistic education
 No thought besides on lessons is allowed and value of student
decided by a arbitrary grade
 Constant curiculum change which do not adress any problems
 “Give formula then solve questions” style education

4. Cultural sources:
 Human value being decided by wage
 Extreme pressures such as “Be the best student or marry
someone rich” mentality
 Young workers are seen as useless ( hence i need experience
for a job and for experience i need a job " cycle )
 “Dignity” Young people don’t want to start from bottom, they
think because they graduated they deserve to be CEO
 Young people are not aware of the jobs available.

5. Economical sources:
 Global economical situation makes people insecure about their
jobs.
 Local government does not exploit their own assests and waits
to bureaucracy to sort things out.
 In Turkey and in most Eastern Europe countries government
isn’t backing up the small investors instead increases taxes on
what they need to operate (such as gasoline).
 Insufficient subsidies and not enough announcement of such
subsidies.

6. Education:
 Change should start with teachers aka teacher schools not from
grade 1
 Practicality focused methods shall be used such as
experiments, observations etc.
 The first thing for students to learn should be scientific
methodology and observation thus they will know how to
educate themselves
 There must be discussion sessions on the subjects instead of
teaching them same things for years.
 Application sessions instead of theory sessions
 Students should be given environment to use recently acquired
knowledge instead of throwing more information.

7.  Point in education will not be “Throw everything at them with
no context” and instead will be slow but steady so we will
focus on wisdom instead of empty knowledge
 After the primary school students should already know and
understand what they wish to do in life and how to contribute,
minimising people who learn science but have nothing to do
with it.
 To compensate for reduced information input students will be
tought, how to search after all we have books & internet.
 Education should make students realise their talents and work
on that instead of assuming everyone is equal.
 Grades should be made obselete over time and replaced with
performance reports. Easing the job of parent, student, teacher,
employer.

8. Cultural & Economical :
 We need to make young people more aware of employment
offices and perhaps a site where ALL employers post jobs
instead of spreading them everywhere.
 Outside of school people should be made aware of current job
market for people with their skills and it should be encouraged
to be used as early as possible so we won’t have people in high
school with no idea what they want to or can do.
 Instead of discussing topics which everyone forgets about ,
how about we start creating an image of a government which
cares for the economy after all setting an image doesn’t cost
much but accomplishes much.
 Tax cuts for the small-middle businesses on income,
gasoline.Heavy monitoring should be implemented and harsh
monetary punishements should be issued to prevent
exploitation.

9.  Education investments can be optimised and tracked to increase
performance/Euro and reduce corruption in the public schools
 Curriculum should always go from foundament to advanced and
practicality should be encouraged with project assignements,
presentations.
 A collective site where emloyers can post the wanted employees in one
place so unemployed people can search there.
 Volunteer jobs should also be in that site and it should be noted that
volunteer jobs count as experience.
 Encourage children to choose an area of interest in primary school and
state of the job market for their interest should be explained before it is
too late.
 Instead of discussing topics which everyone forgets about , how about we
start creating an image of a government which cares for the economy
after all setting an image doesn’t cost much but accomplishes much.

10. Short Term:
 Noticable increase in employment among youth.
 Resistance against the new education principles from conservative front,
companies who benefit from ignorant consumer base.
Long Term:
 Increased worker quality.
 Increased economic potential.
 Increased Actual literacy rate.
Engagement:
 Time spending:Full theoratical implementation will require over 200
hours.
 Young unemployed reach:Depending on implementation of employment
office approx. %80.
 Affected youth:Education policies affect ALL the students country wide.
