Jordan

Enabel is bringing to Jordan its expertise in the vocational training and education sector by developing skills for employability of Syrian refugees and vulnerable youth in Jordan.

Vocational training for refugees and host communities

Given the protracted effect of the Syrian crisis and the large influx of refugees, with Jordan hosting the second highest share of  refugees, the country is faced with enhanced unemployment rates and negatively affected relationships between refugees and host communities due to increased competition for accessing public services, including education and employment.

Therefore, Enabel’s work is oriented towards providing Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanian youth and women with equal opportunities to be trained in semi-skilled work meeting local labour market demand. Thus enhancing their employment prospects with local private businesses.
