<br>Republic of the Marshall Islands: The 4th |
|||
<br>Women and Youth Training for<br>Gender Equality, Climate Change, Disaster Risk Reduction and Water Safety Management has recently occurred at the University of the South Pacific's school in Majuro, the Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This vital training was organized by the United Nations Development Programme( UNDP )Pacific Office through the Addressing Climate Vulnerability in the Water Sector(ACWA) project. The week-long capacity-building training aimed to empower females and youth with the knowledge and practices required for climate-resilient water safety management in the |
|||
<br>Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training enhances a commitment to improving RMI's water security and neighborhood resilience versus environment modification effects, specifically ladies <br> |
|||
<br>and youth, guaranteeing that nobody is left. The training welcomed individuals from all 24 atolls and included resource speakers from government companies, non-governmental organizations, and worldwide advancement 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, underscored the significance of cumulative action in constructing a climate-resilient nation."It is our responsibility to come together and collaborate. As we deal with the difficulties postured by environment change, understanding its influence on our water resources is essential for enhancing the wellness of neighborhoods throughout the Marshall Islands,"she said.<br> |
|||
<br>RMI Environmental Protection Authority General Manager Moriana Philip highlighted in her speech the important role of ladies and youth in addressing climate-related challenges."This workshop unifies us from numerous neighborhoods to resolve the pressing concerns we face today, consisting of climate-related obstacles, especially on our water resources."We wish to stress the crucial role of women and youth in this project as your participation contributes to its success and beyond, "she stated. |
|||
<br>The very first day of the workshop covered critical problems connected to gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands. It consisted of conversations on gender equality and mainstreaming, focusing on the impacts of environment modification on water security and the out of proportion effects on susceptible groups. The importance of integrating gender equality and social inclusion into all job elements was likewise discussed. Human rights and human trafficking were taken on, worrying the need for thorough protection of vulnerable populations<br> |
|||
<br>during emergency situations. In addition, the workshop attended to gender-based violence, highlighting the different forms that can develop in disaster scenarios, such as domestic violence and sexual coercion. The agenda concluded with a focus on sanitation and health and their crucial function in health, incomes, school participation, dignity, and building durable communities. ACWA Project Manager Koji Kumamaru revealed his appreciation to all participants<br> |
|||
<br>, highlighting the importance of their contributions to their communities."Women and youth are key to the success of the ACWA project. More significantly, you are the champions and future leaders who will go back to your neighborhoods to empower others,"he said. Throughout the workshop, participants checked out Rongrong Island and examined the 15,000-gallon Flatpack Modular water tank installed at the Rongrong High School Boys Dormitory as part of the ACWA task. The setup is a crucial component of the task, matched by support from Australia |
|||
<br>'s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The visit served as a valuable direct experience of the favorable effect of the ACWA task on the neighborhood and its<br> |
|||
<br> water resources. Marie Naisher from Jabat Island revealed her appreciation for the chance to join the workshop and made clear her desire to be part of the task when it reaches Jabat.<br> |
|||
<br>"This was my very first time participating in such training, and I found out so much from the guest speakers, group activities, and the site visit. I now comprehend the value of clean water and how to sanitize it. I'm excited about the ACWA project concerning Jabat and prepared to assist when it shows up,"she said. Don Kobney, an ACWA site coordinator from Santo, Kwajalein, likewise shared his excitement."The workshop and website check out enhanced my confidence and understanding of the water tank installation. <br> |
|||
<br>Seeing the 15,000-gallon flatpack modular water tank firsthand offered me a clear understanding of the system, and I'm looking forward to sharing this understanding with my neighborhood, "he stated. By the workshop's end, individuals were better equipped to comprehend climate modification and its local effects, drive adaptation and mitigation efforts, particularly in water safety, and make use of brand-new resources to affect their neighborhoods favorably. ACWA is made possible thanks to the assistance of the Green Climate<br> |

<br>Fund, with the task co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands<br> |
|||
<br>. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the efficiency of the task and highlights lessons. Provides inputs to two broader examinations- the local evaluation of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique examination study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic attainment and lack of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the low quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the professional and technical education system.<br> |
|||
<br>These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained economic sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high among the youth and women in the outer islands. Appropriate regional skilled workers for existing task vacancies<br> were not available, thus the importation of appropriately skilled foreign employees. Therefore, there was an inequality in between available jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the effort for the Government<br>of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to improve skills training to offer well-trained workers required for sustained financial and social advancement. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The project included four parts: advancement of a career awareness program, skills training improvement, boosted skills training chances for women and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected result was increased income-generating opportunities and work for trainees, particularly ladies and youth in the external islands. In general, the job was rated unsuccessful. Minimal development was attained in making the project responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector employers. The enduring weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies |
|||
<br>amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partly attributed to the poor quality of basic education. The job was supply-driven and could not develop a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and trade education training system has stayed basically the exact same after task completion. The study put forward that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's |
|||
<br>commitment to developing a dedicated labour info system to connect technical and vocational education training program offerings with market need. Although the task established a labour market information system, in the lack of internal staff ability at the [National Training Council](https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/d8files/2023-08/ESCAP-2023-RP-Marshall-Islands-National-Investment-Policy-Statement.pdf), it was not completely functional. |
