Immigrant youths are particularly prone to marginalisation, says Finnish Business and Policy Forum EVA. According to the think tank’s study, education is paramount for preventing exclusion from society.
“Over a quarter of marginalised youths have foreign backgrounds. Their entry into Finland’s education and labour markets is four or five times more difficult than for their native Finnish counterparts,” says Pekka Myrskylä, Head of Development at Statistics Finland’s Population Statistics Department, who compiled the report for EVA.
