Title A name given to the resource YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT AND ITS PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC EFFECTS ON CAREER DEVELOPMENT: A CASE STUDY OF GOKWE RURAL COMMUNITY, ZIMBABWE Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource JUDITH CHIFAMBA MBWIRIRE JOHN Description An account of the resource This study sought to evaluate the effects of unemployment on youth career development in Gokwe Rural Community, Zimbabwe. Employing a mixed-methods explanatory sequential design, the research involved a population of 375 individuals, with a final sample size of 104 participants—90 for quantitative data (88 completed questionnaires) and 14 for qualitative insights. Sampling techniques included purposive, random and convenience sampling. Data were collected from youths, community members, ward councillors and Ministry of Youth officials. The findings revealed that high unemployment rates significantly contributed to psychological challenges, such as depression and anxiety, which adversely affect self-esteem and motivation. Economically, the study highlighted a concerning trend of stagnation, as educated youths often migrate to rural areas in search of better opportunities, further exacerbating local poverty. The results underscored the urgent need for targeted youth development programmes aimed at enhancing employability and providing psychological support to improve overall well-being Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Zimbabwe Journal of Business, Economics and Management Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2025 career development community development economic stagnation mental health and employment psychological effects Youth unemployment
