Description:
Youth represent a large and dynamic portion of Kenyas population, with 80% of the current population below 35 years of age. USAIDs Employment Pathways for Youth program increases the responsiveness of Kenyan Technical and Vocational Training (TVET) institutions to labor market demands, creating opportunities for youth to gain employment in growing sectors like information technology, textiles, and pharmaceuticals manufacturing. To achieve this, we help TVETs deliver market-relevant instruction and build strong connections and feedback loops between TVET institutions and employers.
