Inclusive youth consultation sessions by Rwanga and ILO, with the support of the Government of the Netherlands under the PROSPECTS Partnership, are taking place across Iraq, including the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, bringing together youth from refugees Internally Displaced and host communities.

The purpose behind these sessions is to enhance and tailor the technical content of the ILO's global Guide, "Rights at Work for Youth" to align it seamlessly with the Iraq context.

The ILO global Guide focuses on decent work for youth, covering an array of areas including workplace conditions, social security, Occupational Safety and Health and more, with a dedicated section on displacement and the World of Work.

Moving forward, the intervention will build institutional capacities of youth directorates and TVET providers to mainstream and promote rights at work for youth -ensuring that young women and men from host, refugee or internally displaced communities are better equipped with skills to exercise their rights and ensure they are aware of their responsibilities in the workplace, which is critical in allowing them to become leaders, organizers, and advocators in their communities.
