    The Ministry of Labour, Public Administration and Social Affairs of Benin wanted to address, with the support of SOCIEUX-mobilized public experts, the challenge of successfully promoting decent employment opportunities among the youth. The French experts mainly provided an assessment of the current policy framework for youth employment promotion, as well as specific recommendations, mostly aimed to operate a reorganization of the Fonds National d’Action Sociale (FNAS) and strengthen the capacity of its staff.
