- comments:
- Beneficiaries seeking employment
- challenges:
- The training to enhance employability resulted for only 14% in formal employment.
- success:
- The training was effective to enhance skills and overall empowerment.
- context:
- General low offer on the job market, unsuitable working conditions particularly for women, long hours and low wages, far distance from the community.
- description:
- The design of wage-employment activities should be closely aligned with the job offers available
If there are no suitable jobs available in the vicinity of the beneficiaries, or the jobs are unsuitable for specific people (e.g. women), the employability trainings may enhance skills but will not enhance the employment rate of beneficiaries. If there is a general low offer of jobs in an area, the provision of training would not enhance the opportunity of people to find employment
- administrative_issues:
- Conduct a market assessment to assess whether job skills training is most suitable, or whether alternative economic opportunities should be explored.
