    Description
    The action served the purpose of increasing the efficiency and visibility of the Guinea’s Agency for Employment Promotion (AGUIPE) in order to enable it to address the high rate of youth unemployment, especially among the graduated youth and those who benefitted from vocational education and training (VET). Two initial activities allowed French experts to carry out a systemic and organizational diagnosis of AGUIPE and to formulate recommendations in order to strengthen, develop and diversify AGUIPE's services. Finally, experts from Belgium and France have assessed the digital tools available to AGUIPE to promote its role and the services provided, particularly the website and the use of digital media as vehicle of communication towards large constituencies.

Training provided by public experts from the United Kingdom and Portugal to Ghanaian officials targeted the development of the labour market information system (LMIS), while methods of evaluation of active labour market policies were presented. Experts also formulated specific recommendations on how to systematically improve the operation of public employment services’ (PES) centers, which play a capital role in promoting employment opportunities and creating the conditions to match labour demand and supply.
