For more than 30 years Swisscontact has been working in the field of initial vocational education and training helping rural and urban populations to gain access to jobs and incomes. Our beneficiaries acquire the skills that allow them to grow and develop economic activities in important economic sectors. With regard to labour market integration, Swisscontact is developing supplementary services such as informational and advisory services required to design professional projects suited to the needs of the market. Support for self-employment is also an area of intervention, providing young people with technical assistance from professionals, access to credit, the development of a business plan, etc.
