Organised by the Ministry of Labour, Family and Social Affairs of Slovenia and the International Labour Office (ILO)
6 and 7 December 2007, Ljubljana, Slovenia
Despite increased economic growth, the inability of economies to create enough decent and productive jobs is hitting youth especially hard, experts from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the FYR of Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia concluded at a meeting in Ljubljana on 6 and 7 December.
The “Subregional Tripartite Meeting of Experts on Decent Employment for Young people” was organised by the Ministry of Labour, Family and Social Affairs of Slovenia and the International Labour Office (ILO) to discuss how economic growth can be accompanied by the creation of decent employment for young people.
