Identifying the multifactorial process and the variety of risk factors involved contributed to a better understanding of mechanisms of early school leaving. The research has helped reduce early school leaving and thus directly contributed to SDG 4 “Quality Education.” Better educa-tion also supports the fight against poverty (SDG 1 “No Poverty”), is a basis for job security and economic growth (SDG 8 “Decent Work and Economic Growth”) and reduces inequalities among different demographic groups (SDG 10 “Reduced Inequalities”). The results have supported and influenced regional, national, and international policymak-ers in developing efficient education policies to strengthen inclusion within education systems, especially for socially disadvantaged adolescent.
