The program

 

“Working Together” is a joint venture of the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs and Social Services and philanthropic foundations. The overarching goal of this pilot program is to facilitate job creation benefiting youth at risk in the Southern periphery. The program fosters new partnerships between employment organizations, youth centers and employers interested in sustainable employment solutions. New partnerships benefit from institutional capacity development and financial support, while the youth are offered professional training, skill-building, job placement and accompaniment throughout the program.
