Project Overview
 
SYLP or Shaqodoon is a two-tiered program, job skills training and work placement, designed to productively engage the Somali youth by providing market relevant job skills training, and leading them towards opportunities to earn a living. Through continuous collaboration with local employers, EDC staff is able to glean pertinent labor market deficiencies, and accordingly provide financial and technical assistance to select education and training providers, to develop more integrated training programs that meet the demands of the labor market.

 

The Assessment 

 

In 2008, EDC and Mercy Corps did an assessment in Somaliland by consulting businesses, training centers, universities, youth, and appointed public service officials.  The assessment team found that a gateway is needed that can bridge the gap between labor market demands and youth unemployment. As a result, the focus shifted to understand specific skill gaps in the labor market, to assist education and training providers to develop or build upon existing technical programs that are more focused on meeting these gaps, thus, guiding youth to work and livelihood opportunities.

  

Activities

 

The Shaqodoon program has partnered with 50 local and international implementing partners that include NGOs, training institutes, and businesses to provide workforce readiness, vocational, and career counseling training as well as innovative approaches to youth livelihood provision, with specific focus on entrepreneurship and small business development. Shaqodoon staff provide monitoring services for quality assurance and other technical assistance backed up by international expertise.

Shaqodoon continuously works with employers to define their needs for skills, and provide ongoing program development assistance to education and training providers. In addition to class room instruction, the project recently incorporated interactive Somali language audio programs with themes on Financial Literacy and Entrepreneurship to its training curricula. Furthermore, Shaqodoon utilizes InfoMatch, an innovative cell phone and web-based technologies to link organizations offering opportunities with youth looking for work.The project aims to reach 8,700 youth over a 3-year period.
