Policy Brief: Pathways to Employment: What works, what does not, and how can we innovate?
This policy brief has been developed to emphasize the policy issues facing employment in Egypt and provides a concise summary of recommendations and action plans to help promote and achieve sustainable employment in Egypt.
The ILO’s project “Egypt Youth Employment (EYE): Working together in Qalyoubia and Menoufia”, funded by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, organized “Pathways to Employment: What works, what does not, and how can we innovate?” workshop during March 2020. Based on this workshop, which aimed to build the capacity of stakeholders and partners working on employment programmes for young people in Egypt, this policy brief provides an overview of the workshop’s activities, a concise summary of presented recommendations and action plans shared by the participants, and policy and programme-related recommendations to help promote and achieve sustainable employment in Egypt.
It also emphasizes the policy issues facing employment in Egypt and the outcomes of the three working groups held during the workshop which tackled major employability schemes including: ‘Training for Employment (TfE)’, ‘job fairs, job search clubs and online platforms’ and ‘wage subsidies and apprenticeship’.
