Senegal: Practical training of young people for “green jobs”

In Diourbel, a rural region with high potential for the expansion of renewable energies and high youth unemployment, the new project aims to establish innovative vocational education and training opportunities with craft organizations and vocational training institutions. This will help young people and young skilled workers to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the rapid development of the sustainable energy sector. Well-structured vocational training adapted to companies can enable companies to work more productively and profitably, thus increasing the chances of creating new jobs through growth and strengthening the local economy.
