  • Abstract:
  • Educated unemployment in Kerala, a state renowned for its high literacy rate and emphasis on education, is a paradox that poses significant challenges to its socio-economic development. Despite the state’s progress in expanding access to education, the growing number of graduates and postgraduates has not been matched by an adequate number of employment opportunities. This mismatch between educational qualifications and job availability has led to frustration, underemployment, and migration among Kerala's educated youth. The issue stems from several factors, including an outdated education system, limited industrial growth, economic constraints, and the lack of alignment between academic curricula and industry requirements. Educated unemployment not only affects the personal lives of individuals but also has broader implications on the state’s economy and social stability. This study aims to explore the causes of educated unemployment, assess its socio-economic impacts, and examine government policies and interventions designed to address this pressing issue in Kerala.
