The study underlines the advantages of an education structure with a larger share of the population with secondary vocational and higher education and a smaller share of the population with primary and lower level of education. In this context, among the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, Slovenia shows the most favourable current educational structure, while Bulgaria has the least favourable, suggesting different advantages for the green transition and easier initial labour market integration.<br \/>\n<em>Keywords:<\/em> education, green transition, youth unemployment, Bulgaria, CEE<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/science.azbuki.bg\/en\/member-login\/\">Log in to read the full text<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kristina Stefanova Economic Research Institute at Bulgarian Academy of Science https:\/\/doi.org\/10.53656\/str2024-6-6-edu Abstract.
