most vulnerable population.
The specific objective of SINCE is to facilitate the
creation of employment opportunities for
potential migrants and returnees, focusing on women
and youth, in the most migration prone regions of
Ethiopia (Addis Ababa, Amhara, Oromia, SNNPR and
Tigray), by strengthening the capacities of Technical
Vocational Training (TVET) centers and Public
Employment Services (PES) providers, and by
promoting Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) in
strategic value chains.
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
The implementation of SINCE includes two main
strategic pillars:
short-term responses to facilitate wage employment
to 8,200 people through the provision of training
courses relevant to private sectors needs;
medium and long-term strategies, establishing 16
multi-stakeholders platforms to promote
sustainable 145 Public -Private Partnerships.
