Labour market-responsive entrepreneurship training

Implementing a labour market-responsive entrepreneurship training programme for the youth: A case study

In a pilot scheme that sought to increase young people's access to decent work at the local level through entrepreneurship, programme implementers, trainers and the youth were able to learn significant insights to add to their store of life experiences.

The conduct of the labour-market responsive entrepreneurship training for the youth was a learning experience for all concerned from programme implementers to local partners to the disadvantaged youth.

This case study aims to highlight the strategies and innovations adopted by the joint programme and the challenges and lessons learned in the implementation of entrepreneurship training. It has the added value of serving as a start-off point and reference material for future undertakings of a similar nature.
