معرفی
Essi Ahlroth is a Doctoral Researcher in the Department of Social Research at the University of Turku, affiliated with the INVEST Research Flagship Centre funded by the Academy of Finland. Her research focuses on youth labor market integration, particularly the factors influencing NEET (Not in Employment, Education, or Training) rates in Finland.
Her research interests include labor market policy, youth unemployment, social exclusion, active labor market programs (ALMP), and the future of welfare societies. She examines how municipal-level policies shape youth education and career trajectories, using quantitative methods in social science research. Her work bridges academic inquiry with practical policy implications for employment services and unemployment benefits.
The two most recent publications reflect her focus on NEET reduction strategies and the evolving nature of youth career paths in response to changing labor markets. These works, though non-traditional in format (blog and public commentary), contribute to public understanding of labor market dynamics.
