<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 happened at the University of the South Pacific's school in Majuro, the Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This crucial 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 ladies and youth with the knowledge and practices needed for climate-resilient water safety management in the
<br>Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training strengthens a commitment to improving RMI's water security and neighborhood durability versus climate change effects, specifically ladies <br>
<br>and youth, guaranteeing that nobody is left behind. The training welcomed participants from all 24 atolls and featured resource speakers from government companies, non-governmental organizations, and international 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 building a climate-resilient country."It is our responsibility to come together and interact. As we deal with the challenges presented by climate modification, comprehending its effect on our water resources is essential for enhancing the well-being of communities throughout the Marshall Islands,"she said.<br>
<br>RMI Environmental Protection Authority General Manager Moriana Philip highlighted in her speech the vital function of women and youth in addressing climate-related challenges."This workshop unites us from numerous neighborhoods to address the pressing concerns we face today, consisting of climate-related difficulties, particularly on our water resources."We wish to emphasize the important role of females and youth in this job as your participation is instrumental to its success and beyond, "she stated.
<br>The first day of the workshop covered critical concerns associated with gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands. It included conversations on gender equality and mainstreaming, focusing on the effects of environment change on water security and the disproportionate impacts on vulnerable groups. The importance of incorporating gender equality and social inclusion into all project elements was likewise talked about. Human rights and human trafficking were tackled, worrying the requirement for extensive defense of susceptible populations<br>
<br>throughout emergency situations. Additionally, the workshop dealt with gender-based violence, highlighting the various types that can arise in catastrophe scenarios, such as domestic violence and sexual browbeating. The agenda concluded with a focus on sanitation and hygiene and their important function in health, livelihoods, school presence, self-respect, and building durable communities. ACWA Project Manager Koji Kumamaru expressed his thankfulness to all participants<br>
<br>, stressing the significance of their contributions to their communities."Women and youth are crucial to the success of the ACWA job.

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 installation is a crucial component of the project, matched by support from Australia
<br>'s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The go to functioned as an important direct experience of the favorable effect of the ACWA job on the neighborhood and its<br>

By the workshop's end, participants were better equipped to comprehend environment change and its local impacts, drive adjustment and mitigation efforts, particularly in water safety, and use new resources to impact their neighborhoods positively. ACWA is enabled thanks to the support 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 Examines the efficiency of the project and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to 2 more comprehensive evaluations- the regional evaluation of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique examination research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic achievement and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were mostly due to the poor quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in abilities training and the professional and technical education system.<br>
<br>These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained economic sector development and federal government downsizing. Joblessness was particularly high among the youth and ladies in the external islands. Appropriate local knowledgeable workers for existing job vacancies<br> were unavailable, hence the importation of appropriately competent foreign workers. Thus, there was a mismatch in between readily available tasks and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the initiative for the Government<br>of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and professional education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to enhance abilities training to offer trained workers required for sustained financial and social advancement. This was to be achieved through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The project included four elements: advancement of a profession awareness program, abilities training improvement, improved abilities training chances for females and youth, and institutional conditioning. The expected result was increased income-generating opportunities and work for trainees, specifically females and youth in the external islands. In general, the job was ranked unsuccessful. Limited development was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector employers. The long-standing weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies
<br>amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or attending voc-tech education could be partially credited to the poor quality of basic 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 professional education training system has stayed fundamentally the same after project conclusion. The study put forward that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's
<br>commitment to developing a devoted labour info system to link technical and professional education training program offerings with market demand. Although the task established a labour market information system, in the lack of in-house staff ability at the [National Training Council](https://www.zoominfo.com/pic/national-training-council/461963389), it was not completely operational.
