The document discusses youth unemployment in Cambodia. It notes that while Cambodia has a large youth population, job opportunities have not increased sufficiently. Only about 15,000-20,000 of 43,000 university graduates find jobs each year. Youth face barriers like a small job market, poor education quality, lack of opportunities in rural areas, and nepotism. Recommendations to address the problem include establishing a national youth policy, improving education and vocational training, strengthening labor laws, creating internship opportunities, and improving access to career counseling and information.
