Technical support on employment in El Salvador

This project aims at promoting job creation and improving employability, with emphasis on women and youth. In recent years, the ILO has technically assisted constituents in El Salvador to formulate and implement national policies and programmes on youth employment. The ILO is currently promoting the development of innovative intervention models for the productive inclusion of vulnerable young men and women, especially at the local level but in close coordination with the central government and the social partners (workers’ and employers’ organizations). This project seeks to ensure the inclusion of the target population as beneficiaries of public policies on employability and youth entrepreneurship. It also provides technical assistance for the development and consolidation of processes, methodologies and tools for policy implementation, as well as capacity building for national institutions in charge of vulnerable youth and employment-related policies.
