The unemployment of graduates in Morocco: the mismatch between education and employment

Abstract

The article focuses on a theoretical analysis of the relationship between employment and education, specifically examining graduate unemployment in Morocco. It explores various theoretical approaches to unemployment, delves into detailed statistics related to this category, and highlights the quantitative mismatch between the supply of trained workforce and the demand in the job market. Emphasizing a qualitative mismatch as well, characterized by a shortage of skills on the part of businesses and overqualification on the part of graduates, the article provides an analysis based on existing data, not formulated by the author. In conclusion, it offers an overview of strategies and interventions to address graduate unemployment in Morocco, significantly contributing to the understanding and resolution of this crucial issue for the socio-economic development of the country
