Abstract

This article analyzes the determinants of youth labor supply in the urban commune of Toamasina, Madagascar, based on data collected in 2020. We study the impact of factors such as education, gender, and social networks on youth labor market integration. Econometric models, including logistic regressions, are used to identify correlations between these variables and participation in the formal and informal markets. The results highlight the importance of education in accessing the formal sector and reveal persistent gender inequalities in the process of professional integration. Recommendations are made for a better match between acquired skills and labor market needs in Toamasina.
