Skills Development in Asia and the Pacific 2011

The ILO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP) recently developed the Regional Skills Programme (RSP) which is drawn from skills development priorities under the DWCPs of member States and supported by resources from the ILO and selected donors like the Government of Japan and Government of Korea. The RSP builds upon the invaluable earlier work of both the Asia and Pacific Skills Development Programme (APSDEP) and the Regional Skills and Employability Programme (SKILLS-AP). The important work done by APSDEP and SKILLS-AP over the many years provide a sound technical basis and wealth of information and knowledge to the RSP. The ILO/Japan Skills Programme is a significant component under the RSP. The outputs generated by the activities supported by the ILO/Japan Skills Programme support specific regional and country programme outcomes. This arrangement allows for and enables the ILO/Japan Skills Programme to better integrate its activities with the ILO specific regional priorities and outcomes.
