STED: Malawi

This project will improve the ability of policy-makers, industry and the skills development system to identify export-oriented sectors with growth potential, to then identify emerging skill needs in those industries, and to build up the capacity of training providers to meet them. Constituents in the three target countries, Cambodia, Myanmar and Malawi, will gain practical experience in integrating skills anticipation and development in sector growth strategies, building up and using labour market information and strengthening national and sector institutions for social dialogue to link trade, employment and skills policies.
