Around 400,000 youth will continue to enter the labor force annually during the next years. Given the significant slowdown the country's economic activity, the pace at which jobs are generated is and will be insufficient. Through an analysis of labor supply and demand, thispaper estimates substantial net emigration pressures for the years 2016-2030, on the order of around 200,000 people per year. The projected profile of future migrants is one of young men with some basic level of education and from middle-income households. In addition to this economic migration, other factors like increased insecurity, conflict, and natural disasters might further accentuate these dynamics. 650 4 Conflict and Development 650 4 Demographics 650 4 Health, Nutrition and Population 650 4 International Migration 650 4 Labor Markets 650 4 Poverty Reduction 650 4 Social Protections and Labor 700 1 Garrote Sanchez, Daniel. 830 0 Other papers. 830 0 World Bank e-Library. 906 BOOK
