PROJECT DURATION
2022 - 2027
The Danish Arab Partnership Program (DAPP) was established in 2003 by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Danida). The current phase of the DAPP (2022-2027) focuses on employment and human rights in the MENA region, with a primary focus on youth. The activities focus on Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, and Jordan, and address some of the root causes of youth migration to Europe.
he DAPP comprises two programmes with complementary strategic objectives:
The Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship Programme (YEE)
The Human Rights and Inclusion (HR&I) Programme
The objective of the Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship Programme (YEE) is to increase youth employment through entrepreneurship and enterprise development.
To achieve this goal, YEE is implementing the Youth Inclusion and Employment Project (YIEP), which has as its main outcome that young women and men have increased employability and engage in entrepreneurship. The latter implements a number of support activities under the name "Ready For Tomorrow".
READY FOR TOMORROW
The project therefore aims to support an environment where young people can access decent employment and create their own businesses through training, coaching and access to finance. Swisscontact Morocco and its local partners are in charge of the implementation of the entrepreneurship support activities.
