Contesto LAC countries face significant problems of labor productivity growth and, rapid economic and technological changes are profoundly changing labor demand and supply. TVET offers better labor market outcomes and employment prospects compared to general education. Coverage of TVET in the LAC region is relatively low if compared with other education strands and absent in the informal sector. It lacks a systemic design geared towards providing high quality education and linking learning to decent work attainment and productivity enhancement. The region needs to transform TVET into a modern training ecosystem, private sector driven. The development of more flexible learning possibilities will be essential for a society where TVET forms an integral part of life-long learning ecosystems that develop skills for economic growth and productivity.
Obiettivi The Fund for the Transformation of TVET finances the creation of modern, private-sector driven training ecosystems that endow people with the necessary skills to develop successful lifelong learning trajectories and boost the region's economic development.
Gruppi target Public and private sector actors cooperate and perform better in the interest of the young who profit from the transformed TVET systems in selected IDB borrowing countries and, thanks to knowledge sharing, even beyond.
