Unemployment Rate Evolution in Côte d'Ivoire from 1992 to 2019

Côte d'Ivoire's unemployment rate saw significant shifts due to periods of political instability and economic reform. It dropped from 6.7% in 1992 to 4.1% by 1995, showing early economic recovery efforts. A peak in 2012 at 7.2% followed a period of civil conflict, which disrupted labor markets. The rate then decreased significantly, reaching 2.4% in 2019, reflecting economic growth initiatives and increased stability, yet structural challenges in job creation persist for the young, growing population.
