title:

11) Align possible new interventions jointly to be undertaken with Global Affairs Canada to their new policy called ‘Feminist International Assistance Policy’ (FIAP), where gender equality is no longer a cross-cutting issue but a major priority, with a focus on empowerment of women and the needs of women and girls. The next phase of intervention will mainly focus on the skills policy with gender target, gender mainstreaming in skills system and on the skills needed in response to changing technology and increasing trade. It will also propose to promote Value chain approach for market development and enterprise development focusing on women. In particular:  Engendering policies and processes.  Further emphasis on actions under the National Strategy for Gender Equality in TVET, to reach the 2020 objectives.  Support efforts to enhance TVET enrolment of women which currently is only around 20 to 25% while the GoB target is 40%.  Investigate ways in cooperation with A2i to increase the participation of women in formal and informal apprenticeship programs.
