Learning Series No. 1 The case study presents the factors that enabled an NGO in Salvador, Brazil, the Instituto de Hospitalidade, to successfully engage the private sector in its youth employment initiative. Engaging the business community in promoting youth employment is one of entra 21’s core purposes and learning themes. It is an initiative of Multilateral Investment Fund of the Inter-American Development Bank, the International Youth Foundation (IYF) and USAID that was created in 2001 to improve the employability of disadvantaged youth in Latin America and the Caribbean and place them in decent jobs. The program provides young people, ages 16 to 29, with comprehensive training in information technology and life and job-seeking skills, and job placement services.
