On October 8, 2025, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) highlighted growing economic anxiety among youth as a critical concern in its latest global report. The analysis, part of the IMF’s World Economic Outlook update, emphasized that young people worldwide are disproportionately affected by unemployment, rising living costs, and precarious job markets. The report noted that in countries experiencing slow growth or high inflation, youth unemployment rates are often two to three times higher than the national average, creating long-term socio-economic challenges. The IMF warned that without targeted policies, these conditions could lead to social unrest, migration pressures, and widening inequality. IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva called for governments to implement job creation programs, vocational training, and digital economy initiatives to empower young populations. She stressed that investing in youth today is critical to sustaining long-term economic stability and mitigating future crises. #IMFReport #YouthEconomy #GlobalEconomy #Unemployment #EconomicAnxiety #KristalinaGeorgieva #JobCreation #DigitalEconomy #WorldEconomicOutlook #FinanceNews
