Contexte | In Tanzania, a huge share of young people is in vulnerable employment, hindering their ability to move out of poverty. VSD can play a pivotal role to make jobs more accessible, productive and with decent income but it requires to identify potential economic sectors and to link the youth with private actors. Besides, the VSD system faces a number of challenges that relate to access, quality and relevance of skills. These challenges are increasingly acknowledged among VSD stakeholders, both public and private. The government has recently endorsed the National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS), with the aim to strengthen the VSD system and improving its market relevance thanks to a strong partnership with the private sector (establishment of a National and Sector Skills Councils). |
Objectifs | To improve prospects of gainful youth (self-) employment through a contribution to improved access, relevance and quality of VSD. |
