@theskillspundit this may be relevant for your work on #gigeconomy

[ILO Employment Policies @ILO_EMP_Policy]

#crowdwork is a growing source of employment & income for youth. For many, this has led to higher earnings and job satisfaction & remote labour market access that is relatively discrimination-free. This @ILO Working Paper examines these & other issues 👉 https://t.co/TwHau9WZF6

[LKDF - Learning and Knowledge Development Facility @LKDFacility]

What's the general environment of #TVET for #refugees?

A research examines the #inclusion of refugees in TVET, and compares TVET for refugees through the themes of：
🔺availability,

🔺acceptability，

🔺adaptability.

And here are the findings📄

https://t.co/VSwKckdmZM

[LKDF - Learning and Knowledge Development Facility @LKDFacility]

According to @Refugees, more than 82 million people were forcibly displaced by 2020.

Effective education is the ultimate tool for the #inclusion of the displaced.

And better #employment & #socioeconomic status can be possible with TVET

As the last chapter of #SkillsPolicy4Development, we present a list of policy recommendations.

Yet it's impossible to come to a normative conclusion on successful policies & their replicability.

Any design requires profound understanding of the individual country’s context✔️

[LKDF - Learning and Knowledge Development Facility @LKDFacility]

Below are mostly supply-driven instruments that target the labour market👇

Policymakers need to involve the #privatesector closely & pay special attention to #skillsdevelopment in the informal sector as well as for youth and female workers.
