description Having become France's 101st department in 2011, the Mayotte archipelago is home to a very young population whose division into several distinct groups is strongly linked to nationality as well as place of birth.

This observation reflects the double insularity experienced by these young people who, despite the interventions of public bodies that attempt in part to offset these inequalities, experience far more difficult situations in terms of living conditions and educational levels.
