In this study, Michel Doueihy presents the situation of young people in Lebanon in 2021. He focuses on analysing the career choices regarding the informality and instability of the Lebanese labour market, and the loss of work opportunities that has led youth to opt for safer job positions, often at the expense of their personal enjoyment. The author points out the lack of interest in politics and the feelings of resentment against ruling class politicians and ruling system. Furthermore, the report looks at youth’s personal life and experiences, as well as their position on emigrating and day to-day stability. The analysis is based on the results of the FES MENA Youth Study for which 1,000 young men and women were interviewed in twelve countries.
