Abstract
Youth unemployment is important indicators of the development of the regions of Ukraine and the labour market as a whole. In Ukraine, this indicator is characterized by significant territorial differentiation, caused by the level of socio-economic and innovative development of regions, the social and economic security of regions, the level of urbanization, investment attractiveness of the territory, development of small business, etc. In 2018, more than 280,000 young people were unemployed in Ukraine, accounting for one-third of the total number of registered unemployed in Ukraine. That is why an important scientific work is to analyze the dynamics and current state of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine, to identify trends in the spread of this negative phenomenon. The Ukrainian youth as a whole is characterized by a low level of competitiveness in the labour market due to the development of specialities not required in the labour market, insufficient, in some places, the level of professional training, lack of practical skills. The problems of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine are caused by both national and regional factors. The interdependence of youth unemployment in regional labour markets and the magnitude of youth migration flow are clear. The presented work describes the level of youth unemployment in the EU countries compared to the situation in Ukraine and concludes that the global processes and trends of its manifestation are widespread. The dynamics of unemployment rates and youth employment in Ukraine in 2000-2017 is analyzed. The analysis of the dynamics of unemployment and youth employment indicators identifies the periods in which they are spread and the causes that have influenced the significant changes in the dynamics of indicators. The regional differences in youth unemployment in Ukraine were identified in retrospect and the results for 2000, 2010 and 2017 were visualized. Ranking method and index method were used to group the regions of Ukraine by the indicators of youth unemployment in 2000-2017. Trends in the dynamics of youth unemployment in the regions of Ukraine have been identified.
