Strengthening capacity for inclusive local development in Southern Serbia To redress labour market disadvantages and social exclusion that are strongly correlated to a poor skills base, it is of the utmost urgency to introduce a system’s approach to adult training that is firmly based on competency-based methodologies. This approach should set flexible entrance/exit paths so that workers get the types and levels of skills needed – at different stages of their working lives (lifelong learning) – by enterprises. This employment-oriented training system should be deeply rooted in the labour market (e.g. occupations, sets of competencies and programmes should be identified with a strong involvement of the local actors of the labour market). For this, human resources, methodologies, programmes and tools need to be developed and integrated into a system that links them to local economic development initiatives. This would allow both enterprises and employment offices training people for occupations leading to sustainable jobs.

Strengthening the world of work response on HIV/AIDS - AIDS Capacity building and Technical Support (ACTS)
Strengthening fundamental principles and rights at work in Georgia Executive Summary: Strengthening fundamental principles and rights at work in Georgia Building on the achievements of previous ILO technical assistance, starting with the tripartite agreement in December 2008 to set up an ad hoc tripartite committee, to the high-level roundtable discussion on the necessary labour law reforms in October 2009, and the Prime Minister’s decree in December 2009 to institutionalize tripartite dialogue, this project aims to support the set-up and effective functioning of tripartism and social dialogue. To this end, technical assistance seeks to transform the Prime Minister’s decree to an independent and well functioning tripartite advisory board; to facilitate the development of regional tripartism; to guide the members of national and regional tripartite committees to engage themselves in a transparent and inclusive social dialogue process; and to establish a Commission for Conciliation and Mediation to better resolve and prevent industrial disputes.

UN joint programme for employment and empowerment of young women and men in Liberia The objective of the Joint Programme for Employment and Empowerment of Young Women and Men (JPYEE) is to promote the employability of young women and men both as a means to sustained economic growth and also as a vehicle for sustained peace and security in Liberia. The youth of Liberia are a heterogeneous group that needs targeted and differentiated interventions. The JPYEE puts emphasis on community participation in the planning of activities, including taking into account the needs/skills of displaced people who have returned to Liberia. It also recognizes that special effort is needed to ensure that young women are effectively employable and have access to decent work. The JPYEE seeks to apply the many valuable lessons learned from interventions during the humanitarian phase. The JPYEE has five interrelated components that make up the transition from a humanitarian approach to a more holistic development approach to youth employment and empowerment: • Youth policy review and institutional support to Government and Civil Society, especially youth-led organizations • Skills training for employment • Facilitating the transition of young people to employment • Empowerment and social cohesion of young people • Promoting decent work for youth in the informal economy and in agriculture and through special employment schemes in waste management and construction Liberia’s Poverty Reduction Strategy (PRS) approaches youth employment and empowerment as a cross cutting theme. The JPYEE was developed through a participatory process between the UN and the Government of Liberia (GOL). The steering committee (SC) will be co-chaired by the Minister of Youth and Sports and the UN Resident Coordinator. While the Ministry of Youth and Sports (MYS) will be the lead Government agency for the JPYEE, other ministries will also have key roles to play in leading the implementation of specific outputs. UNICEF will be the administrative agent of the JPYEE; the ILO will fund a JPYEE programme manager (PM) for the first year. The PM reports to the Minister of Youth and Sports and the RC and convenes the SC. Each of the five programme components has clearly laid out outputs and strategies to achieve themFor the purposes of scaling up and replication, the JPYEE includes a robust mechanism for M&E, using innovative methods to provide a clear picture of progress toward programme goals.

Promoting livelihoods and durable solutions in Dolo Ado, Ethiopia This project will promote the sustainable livelihoods of refugees and hosting communities in the Dolo Ado area of South Eastern Ethiopia, a target population of around 100,000 persons. This project fits within a wider UNHCR programme of assistance for refugees and hosting communities in the area, which covers the basic needs of refugees (delivery of shelter, water, sanitation, health, food security& nutrition), but also ensures protection and seeks to promote livelihoods and environmental sustainability early on. Through this project, ILO will act as UNHCR’s lead partner in the livelihoods sector. The project will promote wage and self-employment within the camps and in the surrounding areas, thus also promoting sustainable and decent livelihoods for the host communities. By facilitating economic exchanges and collaboration between hosts and refugees, the project will also contribute to improve social cohesion in the area. The overall objective of the wider programme is therefore to provide humanitarian assistance to cover basic needs but also to “graduate” refugees from assistance dependency. This will allow to demonstrate that enhancing refugee livelihoods at an early stage increases refugee protection and in the long run is a more efficient assistance strategy for the international community.
