Bilateral organizations

The development agencies of many countries make skills development a pillar of their Official Development Assistance – from the perspective of education systems, employment promotion, poverty reduction, and private sector development. Documentation of their experience, evaluations and impact assessments, mission statements, and other knowledge products are made available through the Global KSP.

The world of learning and the world of work are separate but linked. While one involves learning, the other produces goods and services. Neither can thrive without the other. Strong partnerships between government, employers and workers help ensure the relevance of training to the changing needs of enterprises and labour markets.

The study provides a comprehensive analysis of social partnership in vocational education and training (VET) in eight southern Mediterranean countries (Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, the occupied Palestinian Territory, Syria and Tunisia). It explores policy options within the different national contexts, specifically in terms of how to improve the participation of social partners in the field of human capital development in the context of lifelong learning. The study describes and analyses, country by country, the role of social partners in policy making and implementation in VET. The different stages of development of social partnership in the region are identified and discussed. The paper concludes with recommendations for policy development.
