Project objective
The Project focuses primarily on three areas:
- linking vocational training to current labour market needs as well as anticipating, greening the jobs;
- developing skills qualification and competences standards, curriculum through networking and shaping alliance between beneficiary countries, donor, ASEAN Member states etc.;
- promoting knowledge sharing on skills development, public employment services, greening jobs through South-South and Triangular Cooperation.
The Project is designed to improve skills development, labour market participation, promote gender equality and inclusiveness, which will in turn contribute to the reduction of poverty in Cambodia, Lao People's Democratic Republic and Myanmar. Globalization and technological progress rapidly change the skills needs of enterprises, and thus put pressure on enterprises to find qualified workers and the workforce to find jobs. Improving the quality of employment services through strengthened client orientation and capacity building of job centres and their officials, and improving the quality and analysis of labour market information will be the key components of this Project. Appropriate methodologies and tools for capacity building will be developed with tripartite partners.
The Project will be implemented under the ILO-China South- South and Triangular Cooperation Framework. China’s support will combine the provisions of financial resources and a wide range of knowledge exchange initiatives based on experiences at both national and local levels. Core to this cooperation will be the technical assistance, advisory services and sharing of good practices. Together with the ILO’s expertise and drawing upon a large inventory of practical case studies from Asian and the Pacific Region and other regions, the Project aims to contribute to a more developed skills development and labour market to contribute to economic growth and social progress and advance with the current work under the ASEAN Regional Economic Integration agenda.
