 <br>Republic of the Marshall Islands: The fourth
 <br>Women and Youth Training for<br>Gender Equality, Climate Change, Disaster Risk Reduction and Water Safety Management has recently taken place 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 understanding and practices required for climate-resilient water safety management in the
 <br>Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training strengthens a dedication to enhancing RMI's water security and community resilience against climate modification impacts, particularly ladies <br>
 <br>and youth, ensuring that nobody is left. The training invited participants from all 24 atolls and featured resource speakers from federal government companies, non-governmental companies, and global 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,  [rmimof.com](https://rmimof.com/rmi-national-training-council/) 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 cumulative action in building a climate-resilient nation."It is our obligation to come together and collaborate.

 <br>The first day of the workshop covered crucial concerns related to gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands.

The significance of incorporating gender equality and social addition into all task aspects was likewise talked about.

ACWA is enabled thanks to the assistance of the Green Climate<br>
 <br>Fund, with the project co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands<br>
 <br>. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Assesses the performance of the job and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to two more comprehensive assessments- the local assessment of ADB support for the Pacific and the special evaluation study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the low quality of fundamental education, absence of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in skills training and the vocational and technical education system.<br>
 <br>These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained private sector growth and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high amongst the youth and ladies in the external islands. Suitable local experienced personnel for existing task vacancies<br> were unavailable, hence the importation of properly knowledgeable foreign employees. Thus, there was a mismatch between readily available tasks and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions offered the initiative for the Government<br>of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to offer trained workers needed for continual economic and social development. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The task included four elements: advancement of a career awareness program, abilities training improvement, boosted abilities training opportunities for females and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected result was increased income-generating chances and employment for trainees, especially females and youth in the outer islands. Overall, the job was rated not successful. Limited development was achieved in making the project responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The enduring weak point of poor numeracy and literacy competencies
 <br>amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of fundamental education. The task was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and vocational education training system has actually stayed basically the exact same after task completion. The research study put forward that ADB could motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's
 <br>dedication to developing a devoted labour details system to connect technical and vocational education training program offerings with market demand. Although the project established a labour market details system, in the lack of in-house personnel ability at the [National Training Council](https://marshall-islands.worldplaces.me/review/90559195-rmi-national-training-council.html), it was not completely functional.
