This vital training was organized by the United Nations Development Programme( UNDP )Pacific Office through the Addressing Climate Vulnerability in the Water Sector(ACWA) job. The week-long capacity-building training intended to empower females and youth with the understanding and practices required for climate-resilient water security management in the
Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training strengthens a commitment to enhancing rmi national training council's water security and neighborhood resilience versus climate modification impacts, specifically women

and youth, ensuring that nobody is left behind. The training invited participants from all 24 atolls and featured resource speakers from government agencies, non-governmental companies, and global advancement 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 Human Trafficking Task Force, Waan Aelõñ in Majel, Jo-Jikum, and the International Organization for Migration.

The very first day of the workshop covered crucial concerns associated with 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 change on water security and the disproportionate impacts on vulnerable groups. The value of incorporating gender equality and social inclusion into all task aspects was likewise discussed. Human rights and human trafficking were dealt with, stressing the need for comprehensive defense of susceptible populations

during emergencies. In addition, the workshop attended to gender-based violence, highlighting the numerous types that can emerge in catastrophe scenarios, such as domestic violence and sexual browbeating. The program concluded with a focus on sanitation and hygiene and their vital role in health, livelihoods, school presence, self-respect, and building resilient neighborhoods. ACWA Project Manager Koji Kumamaru revealed his thankfulness to all individuals

, highlighting the importance of their contributions to their neighborhoods."Women and youth are to the success of the ACWA job. More importantly, you are the champions and future leaders who will go back to your communities to empower others,"he stated. Throughout the workshop, participants checked out Rongrong Island and examined the 15,000-gallon Flatpack Modular water tank set up at the Rongrong High School Boys Dormitory as part of the ACWA job.

By the workshop's end, individuals were much better equipped to comprehend environment change and its regional impacts, drive adjustment and mitigation efforts, particularly in water security, and utilize new resources to affect their neighborhoods positively. ACWA is made possible thanks to the support of the Green Climate

Fund, with the task co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands

. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the performance of the job and highlights lessons. Offers inputs to two wider assessments- the regional assessment of ADB support for the Pacific and the special assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional achievement and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the poor quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the outer islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the trade and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained private sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high among the youth and women in the outer islands. Ideal regional proficient workers for existing job vacancies
were unavailable, hence the importation of appropriately proficient foreign workers. Hence, there was a mismatch between available jobs and abilities 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 authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to supply trained employees needed for sustained financial and social development. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The task included four parts: advancement of a career awareness program, abilities training enhancement, improved skills training opportunities for ladies and youth, and institutional strengthening. The expected result was increased income-generating opportunities and employment for trainees, especially ladies and youth in the external islands. Overall, the task was ranked not successful. Limited progress was achieved in making the job responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The long-standing weak point of bad numeracy and literacy proficiencies
amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or participating in voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of basic education. The project was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and employment education training system has remained basically the very same after job conclusion. The study advanced that ADB could motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy discussion, to follow through on the federal government's
commitment to developing a committed labour information system to link technical and vocational education training program offerings with market need. Although the project set up a labour market information system, in the lack of in-house personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not completely functional.covaicareers.com
