Can you help me compare two related economic variables I have in my paper which I wrote (GDP& unemployment rate) and see if you can help me identify a relationship between them, please?

West African nation Togo, bordering Ghana, Benin, and Burkina Faso, has a population of roughly 8.5 million. Despite a stable labor market, reflected in a low 3.72% unemployment rate (2023, World Bank), Togo remains classified as one of the world's poorest countries by the IMF.

Togo's Unemployment Rate from 2019-2023

As of 2023, Togo's unemployment rate is approximately 3.7%. The unemployment rate over the past five years has been as follows:

2019: 3.8%

2020: 4.17%

2021: 4.4%

2022: 3.85%

2023: 3.72%

The data shows peak unemployment in 2021, likely due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a gradual decline in subsequent years. Below is a bar graph illustrating the unemployment rate in Togo from 2019 to 2023:
