Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing, SEM1, 2020
Executive summary
In this study, the role played by business intelligence (BI) or data analysis (BA) tools to assist the UN in its plans has been determined. Research has shown that there are several contributing factors to youth unemployment and in terms of youth unemployment the United States is one of the largest. UN efforts are being made to reduce worldwide unemployment. The Organization has taken several initiatives and implemented various programs to achieve this goal. The UN is therefore advisable to use perspectives and descriptive dashboards. These tools will allow the UN to take specific and rapid decisions with a view to all the factors that are responsible for youth unemployment. The UN will easily see job losses and historical incidents, which will better explain the cause and effect process, through the application of these devices. UN decision-making on areas to be improved on a priority basis would be easy.

1. Introduction
Unemployment means a condition in which an individual finds work at work and cannot find a job. Youth is important to think about unemployment when discussing it because these people have consequences for future economic development, growth and stability. The social impact of overlooking youth unemployment can be significant. In comparison with adults, young people are about three times unemployed. In 2016, the global youth unemployment rate of 71 million youngsters was forecast to reach “13.1 per cent in the International Labor Organisation (ILO)”, according to the International Labor Organization (Plan International, 2019).
“The UN Report (2018)” indicates that youth unemployment is a cause of social and political instability. The population of young people is increasing and their unemployment can have a significant effect on worldwide economic development and growth. The study stressed a steady worldwide youth unemployment rate of 13%. The UN has built several programs to solve unemployment problems. This report seeks to highlight factors contributing to youth work and how the United Nations' objective of reducing the youth unemployment ratio can be achieved by the means of business intelligence (IT).
2. Overview of the UN
The UN is a 193 member state international organization. In 1945, it was established to preserve safety and peace, to increase international cooperation, to enhance the economic growth of nations and to develop friendly relations between nations.

Total Youth unemployed by Age(15-24): 24,696
4. Analysis:
The available evidence indicates a higher rate of overall unemployment and youth unemployment in the United States of America (USA). “The youth unemployment rate in the United States has been up to 8.50 percent in July 2019 compared to 8.10 percent in June 2019, according to Trading Economics (2019)C”. By 2019, “the peak youth unemployment rate was 12,14 percent from 1955. In 2010, the youth jobless rate peaked at 19.50 percent in all times”.
5. Factors of unemployment:
5.1 Globalization, developments in technology and economic growth:
The employment and economic empowerment levels of young people are critical elements in building a strong society. The challenges that create obstacles to the way of work must therefore be identified. Youth is a weak population, says the United Nations (2019). The way jobs were established has changed with globalization. The factors that have a huge influence and have substantial effect on the labour market are economic growth, technical innovations and regular globalization. The relationship between workers and employers has also changed these factors. While these trends have succeeded in offering young people constant incentives for guaranteeing their long-term jobs, the demands have also increased. The need for steady development in skills has increased with increased versatility and availability of a variety of job opportunities. While economic growth is necessary in order to increase job opportunities, it is not enough. Companies do need to be inspired to build jobs and to prepare their young people to succeed in the future.
5.2 Gap in ability:
One of the biggest causes for unemployment is the skills shortage. Poverty is one of the key reasons for attending school and university that causes ability gaps. The needs of businesses cannot be fulfilled by individuals. That promotes unemployment among young people. In addition, higher education costs often hinder young people to obtain credentials that are required to boost their job prospects at the UN. Some examples of growing the need for continuing workforce growth in order to sustain the competitiveness of the labour market are economic shifts, technologic advances and industrial developments. The deficit in skills is one of the big disparities in youth unemployment worldwide and in the United Nations.
