Tunisia: Unemployment haunts college graduates

Tunisian college graduates are prepared for the demands of their discipline, but face great challenges in finding a job in their own field. "Most of the institute graduates are still unemployed or have started working in fields not related to their discipline," said Hayet Et Beji, a graduate of Tunisia's institute for heritage preservation. "What made the higher education ministry abandon the discipline is that it has no feasible way of integrating its graduates into the job market."
