The countries in the Western Balkans have been severely affected by
the wars and conflicts that led to the breakup of former
Yugoslavia, by political instability and the effort of creating new
states, weak economies and high levels of unemployment, poverty and
social exclusion, and inequality. As revealed by recent surveys,
such as EBRD's Life in Transition Survey and Eurofound's European
Quality of Life Survey, life satisfaction in the region is far
below that elsewhere in Europe. In recent years they had achieved a
strong impetus of economic growth with falling rates of
unemployment and increasing optimism for the future. However, the
COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 has brought about a sudden reversal of
these trends and a renewed deterioration in the economic outlook,
and an increase in social hardships that heralds a repeat of past
failures in economic inclusion policies. This book identifies the
key challenges in the areas of economic inclusion, focusing on the
themes of labour markets, vocational education and skills, female
entrepreneurship and the integration of migrants. It considers the
opportunities for solutions to "build back better" once the
recovery from the COVID-19 crisis begins, and offers proposals for
more acceptable, equitable and effective economic inclusion
policies.
