Women and Youth Training for
Gender Equality, Climate Change, Disaster Risk Reduction and Water Safety Management has actually just recently happened at the University of the South Pacific's campus in Majuro, the Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This essential training was arranged by the United Nations Development Programme( UNDP )Pacific Office through the Addressing Climate Vulnerability in the Water Sector(ACWA) project. The week-long capacity-building training intended to empower women and youth with the understanding and practices needed for climate-resilient water safety management in the +
Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training reinforces a dedication to boosting [rmi national training council](https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/d8files/2023-08/ESCAP-2023-RP-Marshall-Islands-National-Investment-Policy-Statement.pdf)'s water security and neighborhood strength versus climate change effects, specifically women
+
and youth, guaranteeing that nobody is left behind. The training welcomed individuals from all 24 atolls and included resource speakers from government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and worldwide development partners from the RMI Environmental Protection Authority, Climate Change Directorate, Office of the Chief Secretary, Ministry of Culture and Internal Affairs, National Disaster Management Office, Women United Together Marshall Islands, [rmi national training council](https://rmimof.com/rmi-national-training-council/) Human Trafficking Task Force, Waan Aelõñ in Majel, Jo-Jikum, and the International Organization for Migration. In her opening remarks, Secretary for the Ministry of Culture and Internal Affairs, Brenda Alik, underscored the significance of cumulative action in developing a climate-resilient country."It is our responsibility to come together and work together. As we deal with the obstacles positioned by environment modification, comprehending its influence on our water resources is essential for enhancing the well-being of neighborhoods throughout the Marshall Islands,"she said.
+
RMI Environmental Protection Authority General Manager Moriana Philip highlighted in her speech the important role of women and youth in addressing climate-related obstacles."This workshop joins us from numerous communities to address the pressing concerns we face today, including climate-related challenges, especially on our water resources."We want to stress the important role of ladies and youth in this project as your involvement is instrumental to its success and beyond, "she stated. +
The first day of the workshop covered vital concerns connected to gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands. It included conversations on gender equality and mainstreaming, focusing on the effects of environment modification on water security and the disproportionate impacts on vulnerable groups. The significance of integrating gender equality and social addition into all project elements was also talked about. Human rights and human trafficking were taken on, stressing the need for comprehensive security of susceptible populations
+
during emergency situations. In addition, the workshop resolved gender-based violence, highlighting the different kinds that can emerge in disaster scenarios, such as domestic violence and sexual coercion. The program concluded with a focus on sanitation and hygiene and their essential role in health, livelihoods, school participation, dignity, and building durable neighborhoods. ACWA Project Manager Koji Kumamaru expressed his gratitude to all individuals
+
, highlighting the value of their contributions to their neighborhoods."Women and youth are key to the success of the ACWA task.

. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the performance of the task and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to two wider examinations- the regional evaluation of ADB support for the Pacific and the special evaluation research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of standard education, absence of access to education in the outer islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the occupation and technical education system.
+
These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained economic sector development and federal government downsizing. Unemployment was especially high amongst the youth and women in the outer islands. Appropriate local experienced workers for existing task vacancies
were unavailable, thus the importation of properly experienced foreign employees. Therefore, there was a mismatch in between offered tasks and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the initiative for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and vocational education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to improve skills training to supply well-trained workers required for continual financial and social advancement. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide abilities training system. The task consisted of 4 components: development of a career awareness program, abilities training enhancement, enhanced abilities training chances for females and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected result was increased income-generating chances and work for students, especially women and youth in the external islands. In general, the project was rated unsuccessful. Restricted progress was accomplished in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector companies. The enduring weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies +
among public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts entering college or participating in voc-tech education could be partly attributed to the poor quality of standard education. The task was supply-driven and could not develop a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and professional education training system has stayed essentially the very same after project conclusion. The study put forward that ADB could motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's +
commitment to developing a dedicated labour details system to connect technical and professional education training program offerings with market demand. Although the job established a labour market information system, in the absence of internal staff ability at the National Training Council, it was not totally functional. \ No newline at end of file
