Half of Iran’s young generation is unemployed or having no hope for their future

An Iranian official announced that 50 percent of Iranian graduates stay at home. The unemployment rate of women in this sector was more than 30 percent. 5.7 million students and graduates of the country are inactive and have no role in production and economic added value.
In the most recent report on the state of the labor market and the unemployment of university graduates, Kourosh Parand, Deputy Minister of Cooperatives, Labor and Welfare of the Iranian regime, said: 'Right now, we have 5 million and 700 thousand students and graduates across the country who play no role in production and economic added value.'
He added: 'Out of 11.2 million students and graduates, 5.7 million people are inactive and have no role in the economy.”
He added: 'The highest unemployment rate is in the fields of computer, fisheries, forestry and the environment, and in computing this rate is 27.2 percent and the lowest rate is in transport services by 1.7 percent.'
One of the main causes of unemployment in Iran is the elimination of domestic industries. Because of the widespread economic corruption in the Iranian regime, uncontrolled imports, and the lack of protection of domestic industry against excessive import of Chinese products, virtually all domestic industries have been destroyed and few job opportunities exist for young people.
Another factor is the establishment of private universities that have been established by the regime officials solely to fill their own pockets. Despite the high annual fees, in practice, these university certificates are worthless and are not valid in many academic environments.
