Abstract: Achieving the goals of the European Union for sustainable growth and the transition to a knowledge-based economy requires a highly qualified, socially integrated young human resource that can meet the challenges of the future. In this context, the category of NEET young people (Not in Education, Employment or Training) represents for the EU an untapped resource, with both economic and social implications. The paper presents the evolution of the main indicators that characterize the phenomenon of NEET during 2009-2018, with emphasis on the situation in Romania and Bulgaria. These two states, besides the phenomenon of migration among young people, also record significant rates of the NEET category, both with negative implications on national economies. The results of the statistical analysis converge towards a tendency towards a global improvement of the phenomenon, but with different evolutions in its structure.
