A report by the Work Foundation and Private Equity (authored by Neil lee and Jonathan Wright) reveals ten blackspots of youth disengagement – cities where between one in five and one in four young people is not in education, employment or training (NEET).

The report calls on all cities to take urgent action to improve the coordination of services for young people, by ensuring there are clear and viable pathways between school, education and the world of work.
