PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Background
Central Asian economies have so far relied heavily on the exploitation of natural resources such as raw materials, water, and soil. However, governments are aware that the resulting environmental destruction and climate change are having a negative impact on the economy. They have therefore initiated a turnaround.
Green skills training and further education are essential for the labor market to promote an environmentally and climate-friendly economy. However, there is a lack of skilled workers and managers, as well as innovative approaches to imparting demand-oriented, green, and digital skills. Furthermore, training systems are not yet sufficiently geared toward a green economy. This means that young people and adults lack the professional qualifications that would drive an ecologically responsible transformation of the economy and create new employment prospects.
Objective
Young people and adults in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan have better employment prospects in the green economy.
Approach
The project supports government officials in steering policies to improve vocational training and promote employment. The aim is to align national economic strategies with concrete, practically identified labor market needs of the green economy.
The project also supports green economy companies and associations collaborating with government administrations to improve vocational training and
