Abstract : Many factors have resulted in an unprecedented rise in the unemployment rate in Bhutan. The challenges of unemployment gained popularity in the nation in the 1990s when the nation addressed its socio-economic development and concern over its expanding figures of population and youths. The consequences of youth unemployment are not impermanent if not addressed in the early stage but it generates staggering and unforeseen effects in a nation, its effects are felt with a ‘ripple effect’. This research paper examines the origin and causes of youth unemployment and the probable consequences, and eventually explains and discusses interventions and strategies to curb this pressing issue. Since it is national chaos, it needs to be addressed jointly by all the stakeholders.
