This technical cooperation action has allowed to deepen the Partner’s understanding of the possibilities (and the difficulties) linked to the promotion of micro-insurance for providing essential coverage to uninsured workers. A specific target population has been indicated by the Ministry of Labour and Employment Promotion of Peru as main target group: the dockers of the agricultural market of La Vitoria, in the outskirts of Lima. Experts’ teams – from France, Italy and Spain - have met and discussed with the representatives of the dockers and their unions, in order to explore whether the option of a micro-insurance that meet basic-coverage needs with regards to pensions and the risk of running into working-related sickness or accidents, could represent a suitable option for the workers. Experts also met with private micro-finance organizations in order to explore the actual micro-insurance plan that could be proposed to the dockers.

Description
The Ministry of Labour and Employment Promotion of Peru requested SOCIEUX+ support in view to enhance its capacity to assess the quality and impact of vocational education and training (VET) programmes deployed at the regional level, as the competences, obligations and responsibilities for the design, implementation and evaluation of VET are entirely transferred to the Regions. Mobilized experts from France and Spain have first carried out an inventory and a characterization of the VET existing initiatives. They have thus elaborated a system for monitoring the VET initiatives based on three levels: macro (responding to national priorities and regulations), meso (conceiving a practical role for regional officers to intervene in the deployment of VET), and micro (in relation with private firms and companies supplying employment opportunities).
