The problem: How to increase formal youth employment rates?
Unemployment rate (2005-2009): • 15 to 19: about 35% • 20 to 24: 30%
Informality rate (2010) for young people ages 15 to 24 is twice that of the rest of the employed.
Institutional labor intermediation not fully developed
What is/are the most effective intervention(s) in PJE?

Perspective of this analysis
Costs calculated from the perspective of students, training institutions, Ministry, society?
What other information would you need to calculate the costs from the perspective of the other agents?

Does this analysis represent a total or incremental cost analysis?
Incremental. There are already fixed costs. Training, handbooks, insurance, etc. are additional costs on top of the fixed.

Other issues on costs
But students face different costs: o Age (younger higher unemployment rate), o Gender (types of jobs), o Family situation (cost of child care)
Here: average cost per student from the perspective of the ministry
And firms “subsidize” the program: o Supervision and training of youth

Final Remarks What would you recommend? Which intervention or combination would you scale up?
We can try to monetize all our outcomes but there are lots of assumptions involved and we only have a partial picture
On a given objective, we could identify which intervention would be most effective. The ranking depended on our objective.
