Abstract

An exploratory look at the phenomenon of young NEET in Honduras based on a review of basic literature on the subject and statistical data from secondary sources is presented. Central to the argument is that the understanding of the NEET phenomenon requires a clear conceptualization about youth and youths. Also, young NEET phenomenon is linked to social inequality because they are young who combine a double exclusion, from work and education. The NEET are not new, but relatively unknown in Honduras. The study of this phenomenon is key to get them visible and designing and implementing policies, programs and projects focused on their necessities.
