Abstract: In our conceptual framework we questioned whether a trajectory leads to social integration or is in fact misleading and demonstrated that this can only be answered with regard to the individual contexts in which transitions occur. These contexts consist of both systemic and subjective dimensions. If policies genuinely aim to prevent social exclusion in young people's transitions to work they need to take account of the interplay between both dimensions. It was also highlighted that such an approach needs to take account of young people's agency in terms of their active participation in shaping their transitions. This means also to provide them with learning possibilities that not only concentrate on work-related skills and qualifications but to the development of broader competencies. In this concluding chapter we want to develop recommendations for a new policy agenda for young adults' transitions to work resulting from our comparative analysis of misleading trajectories: Integrated Transition Policies.
