Second paper of the how-to series for rural youth employment
Links
This how-to paper focuses on the promotion of digitalisation within rural youth employment programmes. Digitalisation in rural contexts can be complicated and requires tailored responses to be able to support youth and women in gaining better access to knowledge, information and job opportunities. Through successful planning and implementation, digital tools can help provide these opportunities. At the same time, they create more interesting and accessible routes in discovering youths’ employment potential – both locally and globally.
Integrating various digital solutions within the 360° AgriJobs Approach can help to reach employment goals and increase accessibility for women and youth. These solutions can vary from increased connectivity to provisions of new digital technologies. The key, however, is to tailor the digital solutions to the end user’s circumstances to ensure the most effective uptake.
About the how-to series
The Global Project Rural Employment with Focus on Youth has developed a series of how-to papers, which aims at processing and systematising the project’s practical experiences. Each how-to paper has a thematic focus and provides a brief overview of innovative approaches and inspiration for practical implementation. The series targets implementing organisations and donor agencies working in the field of youth employment.
