UN CC:Learn 2014-2017 Implementation Phase: Recommendations and Lessons from the mid-term evaluation
The mid-term evaluation found that the project has been an efficient and effective initiate, and highly relevant to its targeted users at both the global and national levels. The project is well on track to delivering its agreed outputs and outcomes, with good evidence to suggest that the work is already contributing to long-term impacts. The project is clearly building understanding of climate change amongst its target audiences and – more importantly – there are early signs that UN CC:Learn-supported resources and processes are triggering a degree of positive behaviour ch...
ユニタール南スーダン奨学プログラムは、２０１５年から２０１９年までの過去５回のサイクルにおいて、多くの学びを得ました。
本研修では、南スーダン若手から中堅の専門家を対象に、南スーダンの地域のニーズや起業背景に合わせたデザインの作成目的に、イラク国内青年層の知識、スキル、姿勢の成長に向けた方法に焦点を与える１２ヶ月の研修を行っています。
南スーダンの国内人口の３分の２は３０歳未満であり、若者の９０％は正規の雇用につけない状態でいます。多くの南スーダン人が生活のサポートをコミュニティーや家族から得ている状態で、職を得ることは最優先の課題となっています。また、南スーダンは、長い戦乱を経験したことにより、経済が不安定な状況にあります。加えて、政府の支出の多くが軍部に充てられている中、治安の維持が社会の最重要課題となっています。このような南スーダンの状況を考慮し、ユニタール南スーダン奨学プログラムは、南スーダンの青年層のより良い未来のために必要とされるプロジェクトマネジメント、リーダーシップ、そしてビジネススキルを得る機会を研修生へ提供します。
「２０２０年度 架け橋をつくる：南スーダン奨学プログラム 起業家・プロジェクトプラニング」は、持っているアイデアを実際の行動に導くための重要なスキルを養います。本プログラムの初回研修では、大小規模サイズの...
