Title:
Tanzania - Skills Development for Youth Employability in the Blue Economy Project
Detail:
The project is designed within the aspirations of the Zanzibar Development Vision 2050, which identifies development of core skills and competencies as a prerequisite for sustainable development in Zanzibar. The Vision highlights the need for innovative and inclusive skills development programmes for decent employment, especially for the youth. The project is also aligned with the priorities of the Zanzibar Education Development Plan II (2017/18–2021/22), specifically the focus on promoting Technical, Vocational Education and Training (TVET) that is responsive to labour market demands. It is also aligned with the Blue Economy Policy (2020) which underscores the need for Zanzibar to harness its ‘blue resources’ to reduce poverty, create employment, and improve growth and exports while strengthening food and energy security. The project primarily contributes to climate adaptation results. As such, 50% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 22 million USD is dedicated to adaptation.
