Women and Youth Training for
Gender Equality, Climate Change, Disaster Risk Reduction and Water Safety Management has just recently happened at the University of the South Pacific's school in Majuro, the Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This vital training was arranged by the United Nations Development Programme( UNDP )Pacific Office through the Addressing Climate Vulnerability in the Water Sector(ACWA) task. The week-long capacity-building training aimed to empower ladies and youth with the understanding and practices needed for climate-resilient water safety management in the +
Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training enhances a commitment to enhancing RMI's water security and neighborhood strength against climate modification impacts, especially ladies
+
and youth, guaranteeing that no one is left behind. The training invited individuals from all 24 atolls and featured resource speakers from federal government agencies, non-governmental companies, 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 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, highlighted the significance of collective action in constructing a climate-resilient country."It is our duty to come together and interact. As we face the challenges positioned by environment change, understanding its effect on our water resources is necessary for improving the well-being of communities throughout the Marshall Islands,"she said.
+
[rmi national training council](https://www.adb.org/sites/default/files/project-documents/56192/56192-001-iee-en.pdf) Environmental Protection Authority General Manager Moriana Philip highlighted in her speech the important role of females and youth in resolving climate-related obstacles."This workshop unifies us from numerous communities to attend to the pressing concerns we deal with today, including climate-related obstacles, especially on our water resources."We want to highlight the vital role of women and youth in this task as your involvement is instrumental to its success and beyond, "she said. +
The first day of the workshop covered vital issues associated with gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands. It consisted of discussions on gender equality and mainstreaming, concentrating on the impacts of environment modification on water security and the disproportionate results on susceptible groups. The importance of integrating gender equality and social addition into all project aspects was also discussed. Human rights and human trafficking were dealt with, worrying the need for thorough security of susceptible populations
+
during emergency situations. In addition, the workshop attended to gender-based violence, highlighting the numerous kinds that can develop in catastrophe situations, such as domestic violence and sexual browbeating. The program concluded with a focus on sanitation and health and their essential role in health, incomes, school attendance, self-respect, and building resilient neighborhoods. ACWA Project Manager Koji Kumamaru revealed his gratitude to all individuals
+
, stressing the significance of their contributions to their communities."Women and youth are key to the success of the ACWA task. More significantly, you are the champs and future leaders who will go back to your neighborhoods to empower others,"he stated. Throughout the workshop, participants visited Rongrong Island and analyzed the 15,000-gallon Flatpack Modular water tank installed at the Rongrong High School Boys Dormitory as part of the ACWA project. The setup is an essential part of the job, matched by assistance from Australia +

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. Supplies inputs to 2 more comprehensive evaluations- the regional examination of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the special assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the low quality of fundamental education, lack of access to education in the outer islands, and weak points in skills training and the trade and technical education system.
+
These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was particularly high among the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local skilled workers for existing task vacancies
were not available, thus the importation of properly experienced foreign workers. Therefore, there was an inequality in between available tasks and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the effort for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to enhance abilities training to offer trained workers required for sustained financial and social advancement. This was to be attained through an integrated nationwide abilities training system. The task consisted of 4 elements: advancement of a profession awareness program, abilities training enhancement, improved skills training opportunities for females and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected result was increased income-generating opportunities and employment for trainees, particularly women and youth in the external islands. In general, the task was ranked not successful. Restricted progress was accomplished in making the project responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector employers. The enduring 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 partly attributed to the poor quality of basic education. The project 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 occupation education training system has stayed fundamentally the very same after task completion. The research study put forward that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's +
commitment to developing a committed labour details system to link technical and professional education training program offerings with market need. Although the task set up a labour market information system, in the absence of internal personnel capability at the [National Training Council](https://projects.worldbank.org/pt/projects-operations/procurement-detail/OP00327170), it was not fully functional. \ No newline at end of file
